Buchan, Martin Hello Martin. My name is Derek Brown, I am deaf, I used to live in Harrogate, and you used to write to me, I wondered if you remembered me. I hope you are well, and life is being kind to you.

Buchan, Martin I saw your first game for Aberdeen at Dunfermline in Oct 1966. You were always my favourite Aberdeen player. Your display in the 1970 Scottish Cup Final was the greatest 90 minutes I have ever seen in an Aberdeen jersey.

Buchan, Martin I met Martin in my early days of barbering, brilliant player and loved going to old Trafford with my grandad to watch the team play. I cut his hair for many years and he came to my house as well as my shop, a loyal player and a loyal customer, unfortunately things change and lost contact with him, but really enjoyed being friends for many years.

Buchan, Martin Started following United in 1975 aged 9. You became my hero so I took my confirmation name after you. Always enjoyed the Amblehurst in Sale when we travelled over from Ireland.

Buchan, Martin What a class defender Martin was and always a regular in the Manchester United team that I followed avidly from the Tommy Docherty era. Superb tackler and brilliant organiser of the defence. If you ever read this Martin thank you for your loyal service and attacking play making, it was a joy to watch you perform! As the Stretford End would sing ... Martin, Martin give us a wave ... Martin ... give us a wave, which he usually did after a couple of chants! :)

Buchan, Martin Only captain to lift the cup both sides of the border. Total Aberdeen legend. Never heard of this other team you played for, Man Utd, but it sounds like you were a legend there as well.

Buchan, Martin Hi Matin
I’ve been a long follower of Man Utd, a bit strange seeing that I’m from the midlands, and man did I receive some stick, I Just wanted to say When ever I reminisce, you are the first of many great players I think of, you was such a talented player, knew what you had to do, and gone on with it, a big thank you from me for all those great memories.
Kingdom Regards

Buchan, Martin I remember the screamer of a goal Martin scored against Everton at Old Trafford, beating George Wood the Everton goalie from about 25-30 yards into the top corner. Classy defender and alround top professional.

Buchan, Martin Hi Martin. Thanks for your vaued time at Man U. The last time i saw you, in the flesh was May 1979. I was going on my local train from Holmes Chapel to Cheshunt. At the railway station. In Holmes Chapel was the Manchester train from Crewe. I saw Martin & team. It was the return from Wembley. As we lost to Arsenal 2..3. I was sad but happy to see Martin & team mates on train. On there journey home from wembley/ London. Great tactical fast reader of game. Thanks Martin for great memories.
