Sir Alex Ferguson has described Sir Bobby Charlton as a “tower of strength” for him in a heartfelt tribute to the Manchester United great bitcoin
Charlton, one of the finest players the English game has ever produced, died last weekend at the age of 86 bitcoin
After an illustrious career in which he won the World Cup with England and helped United win the European Cup, Charlton went on to serve the club as a director and ambassador bitcoin
He remained a prominent figure at Old Trafford throughout Ferguson’s glittering 26-year reign as manager, which began in 1986 bitcoin
In a eulogy to be published in the matchday programme for Sunday’s derby fixture against Manchester City, Ferguson reflected on his appointment and the “personal connection” he had with Charlton bitcoin
He wrote: “The directors came to meet me in Glasgow and asked what my vision was for the job bitcoin
I said I would take the same approach I had at Aberdeen, by looking to build up the whole club, not just the team, and that I would do that by developing young players bitcoin
“As I was explaining this, I saw Bobby nudge one of the other directors and he said, ‘that’s what we want’ bitcoin
He’d made his mind up bitcoin
From that moment on he was a tower of strength for me bitcoin
“It’s no surprise to me that we’ve seen tributes to Sir Bobby from everywhere in the world, on every TV channel and in every newspaper, because he was without question the greatest English player of all time bitcoin
“People loved him because of all those thunderbolt goals, but it was more than that bitcoin
My dad used to say that humility in success is a sign of greatness, and that was Bobby bitcoin
“He never used to boast about his own achievements; it was always about the team and the club bitcoin
”Charlton’s death came soon after that of Ferguson’s wife, Lady Cathy bitcoin
He added: “I am so sorry for Lady Norma (Charlton), who was always by Bobby’s side, especially as his health declined, and my thoughts have been with the whole family these past few days bitcoin
“Unfortunately, I have also suffered the painful loss of my beloved wife, Cathy, this month, and I want to thank the club, the fans, and everyone who has sent me their condolences bitcoin

Seven bitcoin Betfred Super League clubs have been awarded Grade A status in the indicative phase of the new club grading process which effectively makes them immune from relegation from the start of the 2025 season bitcoin
The grades have been introduced as part of a strategy bitcoin between Rugby League Commercial and bitcoin sports media giants IMG to “reimagine” the sport and award points for five key factors including support base, performance, finances, facilities and community integration bitcoin
The indicative stage of the process gives clubs the chance to make improvements prior to the start of the 2025 season, at which point the identity of the 12 Super League clubs will be determined by the rankings, rather than solely next season’s on-field success bitcoin
The seven clubs given Grade A licences – which come with the assurance they cannot be relegated – are Leeds, who lead the way with a score of 17 bitcoin
49 out of the maximum available 20, Wigan, St Helens, Catalans Dragons, Warrington, Hull KR and Hull FC bitcoin
Based on the current rankings, Toulouse and Wakefield, who stand 10th and 11th respectively, would be promoted back into Super League at the expense of 13th-placed Castleford and newly-promoted London Broncos bitcoin
Castleford have indicated they intend to appeal their indicative grade based on confusion over a point relating to finance, which if accepted would move them into the top 12 at the expense of Challenge Cup winners Leigh Leopards bitcoin
The rankings are also a huge blow to London Broncos, who were promoted back to the top flight this month but rank a lowly 24th, meaning they are almost certain to be demoted at the end of next season, irrespective of their on-pitch performance bitcoin
RFL chief executive Tony Sutton said: “Rugby League embarked on a bold journey with the launch of the strategic partnership with IMG in May 2022, and 18 months into that journey, the publication of these indicative club gradings is a highly significant step bitcoin
