Manchester United Football Club is an English football club,
based at Old Trafford in Trafford, Greater Manchester, and is one of the most
popular football clubs in the world, with over 330 million supporters worldwide–
almost 5% of the world's population. The club was a founding member of the
Premier League in 1992, and has played in the top division of English football
since 1938, with the exception of the 1974–75 season. Average attendances at
the club have been higher than any other team in English football for all but
six seasons since 1964–65. Manchester United are the reigning English champions and
European and Club World Cup holders, having won the 2007–08 Premier League,
the 2007–08 UEFA Champions League, and the 2008 FIFA Club World Cup. The club
is one of the most successful in the history of English football and has won
21 major honours since Alex Ferguson became manager in November 1986. In
1968, they became the first English club to win the European Cup, beating
Benfica 4–1. They won a second European Cup as part of a Treble in 1999,
before winning their third in 2008. The club also holds the record for the
most FA Cup titles with 11.[8] Since the late 1990s, the club has been one of the richest in
the world with the highest revenue of any football club,[9] and is currently
ranked as the richest and most valuable club in any sport, with an estimated value
of £897 million (�1.333 billion / $1.8 billion) as of September 2008.[10]
Manchester United was a founding member of the now defunct G-14 group of
Europe's leading football clubs,[11] and its replacement, the European Club
Association.[12] Alex Ferguson has been manager of the club since 6 November
1986, joining from Aberdeen after the sacking of Ron Atkinson.[13] The
current club captain is Gary Neville, who succeeded Roy Keane in November
2005.[14]
