what actually happened isthat frank scored a hat-trick in his trial game against united youth at 16. they didnt make a decision while both wolves and arsenal had asked him to sign he chose arsenal because they had offered the contract. united never turned him down!!!
He was a legend for utd.
Frank would have got in the utd team now and still been world class.
Arsenal must have been gutted when we signed him

Jack Charlton should have played him in Italia 90. He was really good in his 30's....

DAVID O´LEARY, LIAM BRADY, FRANK STAPLETON.
Three irish boys. Three great players in ARSENAL in 70´s.
Very good moments
... and I´m not Arsenal supporter!

Dogstar is right about him being rejected by United, and he did move to United in the early 80's so you're both right ....
