A clip from a three-part documentary, The Football Men, about the great Scottish football managers Sir Matt Busby, Bill Shankly and Jock Stein. All three were former miners from the west of Scotland coalfields and the great teams they created were an expression of what they had learnt down the pit. The films were as much about politics, religion and identity as they were about football. In this clip Matt Busby sees football as his salvation after the tragedy of the Munich Air Disaster.
