Rarely seen images from the United Archive

The ‘United Archive’ series has a simple intention: to share priceless images with our fans.

Here in the editorial department, we’ve become addicted to the club’s photography archive that was digitised several years ago for future use across the platforms. There are thousands upon thousands of rarely seen images, mostly taken during the 1990s and early 2000s for our matchday programme, magazine and website. 

It’s a treasure trove of gold and our new ‘United Archive’ series plans to share them with our supporters around the world on a weekly basis. In the week we remembered the Munich Air Disaster, it was appropriate to start with a photoshoot of the great Bill Foulkes, a survivor of the tragedy and 1968 European Cup winner. 

That was followed by another club icon, Denis Law, surveying the Stretford End for one final time before it was transformed into an all-seater stand. 

Gary Neville’s 50th birthday was marked with an atmospheric photoshoot at Old Trafford in the early 2000s and, in our latest offering, we revisit Roy Keane’s arrival from Nottingham Forest in 1993. 

Take a look at the images below, enjoy the memories and keep an eye out for more in the coming months…
