Summary

Former Manchester United man Andy Ritchie joins the UTD Podcast this week, to look back on a career that included two hat-tricks at Old Trafford.

Andy tells us how he personally wrote to all 92 clubs when he was looking to sign for a new side - plus we find out where the nickname 'Stitch' comes from... although that's still up for debate.

Helen, Sam and Maysie also read out your emails at the end of the episode. If you'd like to write to the only official Manchester United Podcast then e-mail [email protected]

We'd also love it if you could leave us a rating and review wherever you listen to your podcasts.
