After being taken on as an apprentice by Celtic, he went on to win back-to-back Scottish League and Cup doubles with the Bhoys before moving to Manchester United in a shock transfer in 1973. Macari's goals helped United win promotion back into the First Division in 1975, and two years later he played a part in the winning goal as United beat Liverpool 2–1 to win the FA Cup. Macari went on to score 97 goals in more than 400 appearances for the Red Devils and won 24 caps for Scotland, scoring five times and representing his country in the 1978 World Cup Finals in Argentina. After leaving United in 1984, Macari moved into management with Swindon Town, and also managed West Ham United, Birmingham City, Stoke City, Celtic and Huddersfield Town, winning three promotions, two championships with record points tallies and two Cups. He now works as an expert analyst for Sky Sports and MUTV as well as being a familiar face at Manchester United on matchdays. www.rbooks.co.uk FOOTBALL MY LIFE www.rbooks.co.uk FOOTBALL MY LIFE Lou Macari This eBook is copyright material and must not be copied, reproduced, transferred, distributed, leased, licensed or publicly performed or used in any way except as specifically permitted in writing by the publishers, as allowed under the terms and conditions under which it was purchased or as strictly permitted by applicable copyright law.
