The man who saved Manchester United

Manchester United Weekly Podcast
Manchester United Weekly Podcast
Harry Robinson is joined by Matt Johnson, great-grandson of the man who saved Manchester United, Harry Stafford.
The pair start off by talking about Thursday night's extraordinary win over Wolves and Kobbie Mainoo's memorable 97th-minute winner and then reflect on the man who made it possible, a Newton Heath captain from over a century ago.
There's chat about the early history of United, about Newton Heath, about a community of descendants of legendary figures, about collectors’ items, a tale of loss and tragedy, and a very determined man, without whom Manchester United would not exist.
Harry Stafford is one of The Men Who Made Manchester United, eight inspirational figures who form the basis for Harry Robinson's book, released in October 2023 and available to buy now.
