A really good player who's died at far too young an age. RIP.

271 appearances and 17 goals for Manchester United as a centre-half. Must have been a good player. Also 18 caps for England.

Far too young to pass away. RIP.

Blimey. I heard him being interviewed on Talkshite only about a month ago. He seemed like a very decent guy, and it was sad to hear that he and his brother had a big falling out & hadn't spoken for years.

RIP Brian.

Did he not score in that FA Cup Final when they beat Liverpool 2-1, 1977 ?

His brother scored. Wasn't quite as good as Jimmy Case's goal.

Very sad,both great players for United.
Always remember a goal Jimmy got in an FA cup semi final against Liverpool when a low cross came over which bounced just in front of him and he stooped to header it in the corner.just something about it makes it stick in my mind.
