Charlton pays tribute to fellow ‘Busby Babe’ Scanlon

BOBBY CHARLTON yesterday led the tributes at the funeral of fellow “Busby Babe” and Manchester United legend Albert Scanlon.

Scanlon, 74, who died last month, was in the squad alongside Charlton with both surviving the 1958 Munich air disaster which tore the heart out of Matt Busby’s young United team.

Charlton joined other Munich survivors Harry Gregg and Bill Foulkes, along with fellow United greats Denis Law and Nobby Stiles, to pay their last respects to Scanlon.
