  • 230 - Emma Watson – “The biggest high to the lowest low”

    Sam, Helen and Maysie are back at Carrington to speak to Emma Watson. The Scot joined United from Rangers in the summer of 2023 at the young age of 17 but unfortunately suffered an ACL injury while on international duty, shortly after signing. She opens up about how she is coping with this difficult stage in her career and what her future ambitions are, and believe us, she has big ambitions!

     

    Emma’s career is still in its infancy, but that hasn’t stopped her tasting success. She’s a Scotland international, she’s scored in the Champions League, she won the 2021/22 Scottish Women's Premier League title and if that wasn’t enough, she was named PFA Scotland Women's Young Player of the Year. Wow, you can see why Marc Skinner wanted to sign her!

     

    Enjoy this conversation with a rising star.


    Our women's team have an exciting end of season in store, including an FA Cup semi-final and a match at Old Trafford. You can get behind them and purchase your match tickets here.

  • 229 - The Mayor of Manchester: United's Bright Future

    This week Sam, Helen and Maysie are moving into politics. They were invited to the Greater Manchester Combined Authority to speak to the Mayor of Greater Manchester, Andy Burnham!


    Andy is a huge football fan and an ambassador for the city of Manchester. Although he is an Everton fan, we talk about how his day job is heavily influenced by Manchester United and we explore his relationship with the club. Did you know that Andy's father attended the first game at Old Trafford after the Munich air disaster? And do you remember when Andy visited Vatican City to gift Pope Francis a Lisandro Martinez shirt?


    We also use this opportunity to preview the upcoming Everton match at Old Trafford, plus Maysie tells us what he would do if he was ever the Mayor of Greater Manchester. Could this be the start of a new career?

  • 228 - We've got Jonny Evans! Part 2

    It's happened, we've got him! Lady Evans is joined by Mr Evans MBE on the Manchester United podcast! This episode was recorded in two parts, the first at the Evans household, before we catch up at Carrington to discuss the fact that the defender is now back at the club, after re-signing in the summer.

     

    No ground is left uncovered with the Northern Irishman, from his early days as a supporter and memories of celebrating in the street when his heroes won the Treble. There is some chat around the computer game Football Manager, life in a body cast (!) and why he wouldn't kiss his mum in front of Roy Keane!

     

    Of course, the background of how he joined the Reds' fabled Academy is covered in depth, as well as his two stints in the senior team. Impressive stays at West Brom and Leicester City are also discussed but the main focus is this big Red's affection for his boyhood club.


    There is even a selection of listeners' questions for Jonny to answer as he lifts the lid on how much United means to him.

  • 225 - Unheard: Memories of Munich

    As we commemorate the 66th anniversary of the Munich Air Disaster, we have delved into the archives to present a special episode of the Manchester United podcast.


    In 1998, 40 years after the tragedy, journalist and author Tom Tyrrell spent time with Jackie Blanchflower, Bill Foulkes and Albert Scanlon, Busby Babes and survivors from that fateful day.


    They spoke about the wonderful and ground-breaking team they played in, the events of February 6th, 1958, the aftermath and how it made them feel to watch the United team of 1998 - on the edge of glory themselves.


    Narrated by the legendary football writer Paddy Barclay, this is of course an incredibly emotional account of the darkest day in our club’s history, and the accounts of Jackie, Bill and Albert are presented as they were told in order to educate listeners.
