United for Munich

I sat there watching United
My eyes glued to the screen
Best Beeb sports docudrama
I've had the good fortune to have seen

First division to return to
Hurried victorious from Belgrade
Whims of an ill fated airliner
23 unfortunate souls all paid

Charlton spearheaded the charge
Sir Busby fought the bitter sweet pill
Busby Babes, football's pride
Youthful exuberance stands still

Number 7
