So tragic that a person with his grace skill and integrity should be taken so early. We see George Best's wasted life shown through TV from the 60's to the present day. All we have of Duncan is a few snatches of black and white footage. I wish I could have seen him from the terraces to see this great man bedazzling the best teams of the day...God bless Duncan your candle of life was short but it's flame BURN'T so very bright.

Duncan Edwards was the best, the passion, and pride that you can see in his face, immortalised in photos, a true footballer.
it will be 50 years in 2008, I hope EVERYONE marks this sombre occasion, and pays tribute to one, and all of the players that died as a result of Munich 1958.

Duncan Edwards was & still is the greatest football player of all time. He was so powerful, played with both feet equally, an outstanding header of the ball, a strong tackler & just a gifted football player. Being a massive Man Utd fan Duncan is still my favourite player, so Special! He really was the GREATEST!!!

Duncan Edwards was a great footballer who achieved so much in the space of four or five years. The fact that his career was cut short at the age of 21 makes us all wonder what else he could have achieved if it hadn't been for his untimely death. But while he was playing Duncan Edwards was surely the best player in England and few, if any, other players in a United shirt have been more brilliant.
My grandfather and his family lived just a few streets away from Duncan Edwards and he attended the same school as some of my uncles. They all remember him kicking a ball or a tin around the streets and on the car park of the Wrens Nest pub. That pub was later renamed the Duncan Edwards but it recently closed for some reason. I have also seen his trophies and caps on display at Dudley Leisure Centre and have made several visits to his grave at Dudley Cemetery.

I im named after Duncan Edwards by my father who was and still is a big footbalfan. Still playing at the age of 65 in the "oldtimerteam"
I wish to thank the person who created this webiste because now i know a little bit more then i already knew of Duncan Edwards, the man who gave me my name. I live in the Netherlands and because my name i feel connected to Man. United. Come on you reds!

Duncan: Whilst I was born and raised in Netherton my mother lived on the Priory estate when she was a youngster and told me stories of a young lad who she was good friends with and (knocked around) with him after school etc. The lad was obviously Duncan Edwards and she tells the story of him trialing for Manchester United football club and of him having to leave his home through his talent and how upset she was when he left. She tells that maybe, just maybe if events were a little different that I could have been an Edwards. She still has a photograph of them both on the grass in front of a house on Priory Estate. I could never have wished for a better father that I have but have the utmost respect for the Dudley legend and often think of those stories and of the man who through immense natural talent took himself to the top of his beloved game. Always wondered why my first football strip was MUFC. God bless Duncan and his family.

As a Burnley fan and a lover of the English game the modern players would not be fit to wipe your boots may you rest in piece a team with you and George Best,I think it would have been of the very highest quality what did we lose and to those Leeds fans who were not silent on the tribute to Sir Matt Busby shame on you

Scott Coulthard 18 November 2005 - 12:57
As a 23 - year -old Scot I never saw you play - but I wish to pay my most deep and sincere respects to a true sporting hero. You will never be forgotten and are fondly remembered. That shocking day still shrouds our sport - but that doesn't mean the legends of our sport - the Busby Babes - are ever forgotten. Sleep tight Duncan and the other lads. Love, regards and respect - Scottie Coulthard.
