Former Manchester United boss Ron Atkinson has revealed Sir Matt Busby walked away from the club after the signing of Bryan Robson.
United paid a record £1.5 million for Robson to sign him from West Bromwich Albion in 1981.
Big Ron, speaking with talkSPORT, revealed Sir Matt resigned from the board after the deal was given the go-ahead.
"Not because he was against Robson signing," said Atkinson, " but because he admitted he couldn't comprehend the money that was in the game at the time."
