One of the last youth players to be brought to the club by Sir Matt
Busby, Brian Greenhoff spent eleven years at Old Trafford, during
one of the most infamous periods in Manchester United's history.
Signed as an apprentice just weeks after the legendary European Cup
triumph of 1968, injuries prevented Brian making his debut senior
appearance until 1973. When he did it was part of the only United
side to have been relegated since the war. Nevertheless, Brian was
named "Supporters' Player Of The Year" that season and went on to
form an iconic defensive partnership with captain Martin Buchan as
the club won the Second Division title before taking the top flight
by storm under the flamboyant management of Tommy Docherty. Brian
was man of the match in the treble-busting FA Cup Final of 1977
helping defeat fierce rivals Liverpool at Wembley. In "Greenhoff!",
Brian shares his experiences of the famous youth policy of Busby
and Jimmy Murphy, the players who did not make it, his fascinating
relationship with Tommy Docherty and his struggle with Dave Sexton
that brought an untimely end to his time at United. An England
international, he also lifts the lid on his troubled times at Leeds
and Rochdale and reveals the breakdown of the relationship with his
brother James, one of the most famous footballing brothers in the
history of the game. "Greenhoff!" is the story of one of the best
loved players from a fascinating period of footballing history told
with honesty and no little humour.
