I'd search for the tractor deal if I were you tbh.

Look into how Real Madrid effectively helped us rebuild after the Munich Air Disaster, nice piece of intra club history there as well. I believe the story is that Real loaned us their best player at the time to help us rebuild a team. Found an article here that more or less explains the scenario. Thanks for choosing to write about our club, please post your podcast when it's complete if you don't mind! I'm sure at least a few of us would love to hear it.

Thank you! I knew a little bit about this but never looked at it as "intra club history" I love how you put it that way. That makes the story even more interesting to non fans in my opinion. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll definitely post it once it's done!

Just to follow up, the last 7 paragraphs of that article are also fascinating. They talk about the many rounds of fund raising friendlies played between the two teams, I believe almost all of the proceeds of each of those games went to United and the bereaved as well. Also good to note that Real opened up their training facilities for free to any of our players that might have needed them. All around just a load of top class actions from Real Madrid that our fans should never forget.

You'll find a nice article here, that's worth a read.

This was the first thing that popped into my mind as well.

They wanted to loan us Alfredo Di Stefano, but the move was blocked by the FA

Definitely shows the depths of Real Madrid's compassion at the time. One of the most complete players of all time offered up for free to a club in need only to be denied by the FA.

It would be a toss up between winning the treble in '99 (and playing awfully for the majority of the final) or talking about our official tractor sponsor

I've seen the Class of '99 documentary, and it's great! I've thought a lot about that year for United. Not familiar with the tractor sponsor, I'll be looking it up. Thank you!

Whole relationship between Busby and Bernabeu would be interesting to you.

A Tale of Two Cities: Manchester and Madrid 1957-1968 is the book that you wanna look up.

Awesome! I have a friend who is a massive Manchester United fan (part of their fan club here in Dallas) and he suggested this as well. He'll most likely be featured on this episode. Thanks for the book recommendation!

Major the dog owned by club captain Harry Stafford. If it wasn't for that plucky St. Bernard, the club would not exist today.

I absolutely love the story of Major!
