Also an FYI, MUTV is going to be available free all day tomorrow for the events....
On Wednesday 6 February, everyone connected with United will stop to remember the Munich air disaster of 1958.

MUTV, the club's official television channel, will mark 50 years since the tragedy with a week of special programmes. On the anniversary itself, the channel will be free to air for all cable and satellite viewers.

The schedule of live programmes will start at 8am, leading up to full coverage of the memorial service from Old Trafford's Manchester Suite at 2.30pm. Munich, a new feature-length documentary, will be shown at 9pm, telling the story of the Busby Babes and paying tribute to all those involved in the disaster.

MUTV Online, the official broadband video service, will also be free to view on the day. This will stream MUTV's special programming live from 8am to midnight, enabling fans around the world to watch everything including the memorial service via the internet.

Fifty years may have passed, but the Babes will never be forgotten.
