  • Resumen

  • A Manchester United history podcast. For those who remember the glory days, and those who wish they did!

    It is now 10 years since United last won the Premier League, and there is now a generation of fans who have never experienced such highs - and who may be less aware of the history, good and bad, of our football club. And that's where Retro Devils comes in...

    If it happened more than 10 years ago in the history of Manchester United, it is open for coverage by this podcast. Join Jon the Shetland Devil and others, as we delve back into the archives to look back on seasons, players, managers, events and other goings-on in the history of our club.

  • 8. Team of the 90s - Right Back
    Jul 5 2024

    It's the return of our Team of the 90s series, in which you pick the best United players from that decade to create the ultimate side from that incredibly successful decade. Today, Jon goes through your top 3 United right backs, as chosen by you!

    I'm fairly sure we'd all agree on the winner, and one of our runners up is no surprise either, although the other player, who came 2= in the vote is a definite surprise, if not an outright shock! Remember, these selections were made by you and that I have no say in the order these players are ranked in!

    Voting is now open for the next position - we're looking for a Left Back for the Team of the 90s - via the poll in our Facebook group. Remember you can only vote once, but feel free to add comments to justify your selection, or to support the cause of someone you perhaps didn't vote for but may have wanted to!

    If you enjoy Retro Devils Manchester United history podcast, please be so kind to leave us a rating and positive review on your podcast app of choice. If it's good, we'll read it out on the show.

    If you'd like to support Retro Devils in a tangible, financial way the best place to do that is on Patreon - where you can help keep the lights on for just £1 per month, or £3 monthly if you'd like some extra content too. All the money goes directly into making the podcast better, and your support is very greatly appreciated.

    To keep up with the show between episodes, we're on the social medias. You can follow us on Twitter and Instagram.
    Of course, there is also the Facebook group too, where not only can you vote for our Team of the 90s, but also connect and reminisce with like-minded Reds about United's vast history.

    If you prefer your podcasts in a visual format, we also have a Youtube channel to cater for you!

  • 7. The Famous Number Seven
    Jun 21 2024

    This episode of Retro Devils is dedicated to the memory of Iain Goodlad.
    Iain was our co-host and guest on Episode 5, talking about the magnificent 8-2 victory over Arsenal in 2011. He was also a massive Red and one of my best friends.

    Tragically, Iain took his own life a few months back, and I don't want anyone else to have to go through the agony and anguish his family and friends have. My DMs on social media are always open if you need to talk, and here are some links to professional services who can help if required too:

    Our topic for this episode of Retro Devils Manchester United History Podcast is the famous Number 7 shirt, and how it has become the phenomenon it is today. Who better to discuss this subject with than the foremost author and historian on all things United, than the one and only Wayne Barton?

    We are absolutely delighted that Wayne took the time out of his busy schedule to talk to us about the Number 7 and what it means.
    Wayne has his own podcast, Talking Devils, which you can listen to here:
    Talking Devils Podcast
    and he is also a rotating host on No Question About That, another United podcast I enjoy, which can be found here:

    Our next episode will be a return to our Team of the 90s series, and this time we'll be picking the Right Back position. To vote for your favourite to take shirt 2, you'll need to join our Facebook group:

  • Remembering Munich and the Busby Babes
    Feb 6 2024

    On the 6th of February 1958, the greatest tragedy in Manchester United's history took place, when the plane carrying the team back from a successful European Cup tie in Belgrade, crashed during take-off after refuelling in Munich.

    The Munich disaster robbed the world of 8 of the finest young players in Europe, and brought to an end the magic of the "Busby Babes" - United's adventurous, attacking, young team.

    Today, we remember Geoff Bent, Roger Byrne, Eddie Colman, Duncan Edwards, Mark Jones, David Pegg, Tommy Taylor and Liam "Billy" Whelan, alongside the others who were killed in the tragedy.

    We also pay tribute to those who played heroic and important roles, both in the immediate and ongoing aftermath of the disaster and helped to keep the red flag flying high, ensuring that Man United will never die.
