United Review pays tribute to the late Denis Law

Monday 20 January 2025 15:59

The cover of Thursday’s United Review pays a poignant tribute to The King, Denis Law, following the announcement of his passing.

This special edition of the matchday programme is fronted by a striking image of The Lawman, posing proudly in his beloved red shirt at Old Trafford in August 1968.

Inside, fans can find 16 pages of tributes to an icon who was idolised by Reds of all ages, but particularly by those who every home game squeezed into the Stretford End during the 1960s. 

As usual, the programme starts with Ruben Amorim's notes and our Portuguese head coach will pay his own personal tribute to Law.

It is fitting that a Scottish club provides the competition in Rangers and United Review readers can catch up on their season so far - and key players - in the opposition section.

Notably, the visitors will pay their own tributes to Scotland’s joint all-time leading goalscorer while in Manchester this week.

The ultimate goalscorer, his flair, spirit and love for the game made him the hero of a generation.

Then comes the extensive and heartfelt section on Law, beginning with a four-page feature painting a picture of Denis as both a footballer and person. 

Fans can dissect the incredible statistics from The King’s illustrious career, enjoy the most iconic photos and celebrate his 10 defining moments.

Elsewhere, readers can also find the exclusive player interview, fans' section and the latest club statistics, plus much more.

If you wish to own this collectors’ edition of United Review, copies are available to order online. Fans can also pick up the programme from the booths around Old Trafford on matchday.
