In 1999 Manchester United achieved the unthinkable - they won the FA Carling Premiership, the FA Cup and the European Champions League. The excitement generated was heightened by the intensity and drama of matches such as their 4-2 comeback over Juventus and their last-minute victory over Bayern Munich in the Champion's League final.
This is from the perspective of a non - Man Ut fan. The book pretty much does what it suggests in the Title . It deals with each match in turn starting with a brief match summary followed by the thoughts of Alex Ferguson. The highlights of the book are Ferguson's Report on each match . These are both concise, revealing and incisive.
Brilliant book with amazing illustrations of nearly all the goals scored that season. It's always a pleasure entering the thoughts of Sir Alex Ferguson. My heart aches when I read the startup team, great, great players. Wish I was old enough to have witnessed them all playing for United. Something that made my heart smile is the introduction written by SAF, the book was published in 2001, he said he'd retire in 2002, it is 2013 now and bless his soul he's still here. Ahh.
Absolutely brilliant. Enjoyed every page. Highly recommended to United fans.
It was a very special achievement, so why not relive it with this book? Obviously this would be for soccer and Manchester United fans, but it's a nice easy in-depth read about the amazing Treble winning season for the Reds. A good companion to the Treble video recap.
