EDITORS COMMENTS
1964. . . and a couple of strangers have slipped into the team picture as Manchester United report back for training. In this photo print, amidst the familiar faces of legendary footballers, Geoff Boycott and Walter Robins stand out as unexpected additions. Little did they know that fate had brought them together before the start of the fourth test match against Australia at Old Trafford. As left to right John Aston snr, Wilf McGuiness, Graham Moore, Jimmy Murphy, Jimmy Nicholson, David Sadler, Jimmy Ryan, Alan Duff and others line up alongside these two cricketing icons turned temporary teammates; it is a moment frozen in time that captures the essence of camaraderie among sportsmen. Geoff Boycott's presence adds an intriguing twist to this snapshot. Known for his prowess on the cricket pitch rather than the football field, he finds himself sharing space with some of Manchester United's finest players. Meanwhile, Walter Robins stands proud as chairman of selectors – a position that commands respect within sporting circles. This photograph serves as a reminder that even in moments outside their respective domains, athletes from different disciplines can come together and create lasting memories. The image showcases not only Manchester United's star-studded lineup but also highlights how chance encounters can bridge gaps between sports. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints staff with utmost care and attention to detail on 28th July 1964; this remarkable piece transports us back to an era when legends roamed both cricket grounds and football pitches alike.
