I met Bobby Charlton at a Sega competition at Old Trafford, he was MC'ing the event. He asked me why I subbed him out at half time, I told him and a room full of 500 people, he was too slow.

BOBBY CHARLTON ALL TIME LEGEND AT OLD TRAFFORD 

[maximusmagnanimus100]

Sir Robert "Bobby" Charlton CBE (born 11 October 1937 in Ashington, Northumberland) is an English former professional football player who was a member of the England team who won the World Cup and was named the European Footballer of the Year in 1966. He played almost all of his club football at Manchester United, where he became renowned for his attacking instincts from midfield and his ferocious long-range shot.

[maximusmagnanimus100]

His former team-mate at United, Johnny Giles, in his new autobiography, titled 'A Football Man', describes Charlton as "the greatest player I ever played with or against". His elder brother Jack, who was also in the World Cup-winning team, is an ex-defender for Leeds United and coach.

He began to play for Manchester United's first team in 1956, and over the next two seasons gained a regular place in the team, during which time he survived the Munich air disaster of 1958.

After helping United to win the Football League in 1965, he won a World Cup medal with England in 1966 and another Football League title with United the following year. In 1968, he captained the Manchester United team that won the European Cup, scoring two goals in the final to help his team be the first English side to win the competition.

He has scored more goals for England and United than any other player. Charlton held the record for most appearances for Manchester United (758),[1] but this was surpassed by Ryan Giggs on 21 May 2008 (the 2008 UEFA Champions League Final).
