I've made a start on the Manchester United section but didn't have time to finish it, so I've put what I've done so far here. Cantthinkofagoodname 00:04, 20 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The Glory Years

Law moved back to Withington, boarding with the same landlady that he had lived with during his time as a City player. He made a good start, scoring on his United debut in a 2-2 draw West Brom on 18 August 1962. However, United's form had been erratic since the Munich air disaster and their inconsistent form meant they spent the season fighting relegation. They found form in the FA Cup though, with Law scoring a hat trick against his old club Huddesfeild in a 5-0 win. They went on to reach the final against Leicester City. Leicester were strong favourites, having finished fourth in the league, but Law scored the first goal as United won 3-1 in what turned out to be the only F.A. cup final of his career.

[edit] The Decline

I've put the above text into the article now. Cantthinkofagoodname 13:31, 22 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Dubious Information

Caps and goal figures in the article likely contain European cup/Domestic cup data in addition to Domestic League data (this is very certain based on this user's previous edits containing similar information [1]. Please correct this issue and leave a note here, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Alfmaster#Footballers.27_European_goals, to warn this person about putting improper information on Wikipedia. --Palffy 21:12, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] His Name
