The Crewe Busby Babe and his 1958 FA Cup Final shirt
Ronnie Cope from Crewe played for Manchester United and was part of the Busby Babes. In February 1958, the team were travelling home from a European Cup match when the plane they were on crashed in Munich. Ronnie was a member of that team but he never boarded the plane. His daughter Sara Johnson took his faded 1958 FA Cup Final shirt to get it restored to it's former glory on The Repair Shop. She says her dad was incredibly humble for his time playing for Manchester United.
