ARAB LEGEND NO.2 - DAVID NAREY

He made his first-team debut in 1973 at the age of 17 and was soon a regular from 1974/75.

He quickly matured into a defender of great distinction, a fact recognised by the representative honours he gained at all levels, being the first ever United player to be capped at full-level in 1977.

In his 22 years as a United player, Dave established the record number of appearances for the club with 866, as well as records for each of the individual competitions.

An era came to the end in 1994 when he left United on a free transfer to join Raith Rovers, adding to his impressive array of honours by helping them win the Coca Cola Cup and First Division Championship.

He then retired and severed his connection with the game, spurning offers of coaching posts.
