The Green & Red of Manchester tells the story of the close bond between Irish Manchester and Manchester United.
From the earliest days of Newton Heath – when Irishman Pat O’Donnell walked from Glasgow to Manchester to find work and to play for the club – to Keane, Irwin and O’Shea in the Ferguson era, Irish people have been at the heart of the club’s success.
The contribution of people of Irish descent is recognised from the early days of the Doughty brothers to Shay Brennan, Pat Crerand and Darren Fletcher in more recent times.
The special relationship with the Manchester Irish community is highlighted in the connections between the club and St. Patrick’s in Collyhurst.
Finally, from Ireland’s Taoiseach to Stretford Enders, Green and Red voices say what United means to them.
