Charlton held the record for most appearances for Manchester United ( 758 ), but this was surpassed by Ryan Giggs on 21 May 2008 ( the 2008 UEFA Champions League Final ).

Charlton also held the club record for most league appearances ( 606 ) until this too was overtaken by Giggs on 6 March 2011.

In January 2011 Charlton was voted the 4th greatest Manchester United player of all time by the readers of Inside United and ManUtd. com, behind Ryan Giggs ( who topped the poll ), Eric Cantona and George Best.

Charlton was related to several professional footballers on his mother's side of the family: his uncles were Jack Milburn ( Leeds United and Bradford City ), George Milburn ( Leeds United and Chesterfield ), Jim Milburn ( Leeds United and Bradford City ) and Stan Milburn ( Chesterfield, Leicester City and Rochdale ), and legendary Newcastle United and England footballer Jackie Milburn, was his mother's cousin.

On 9 February 1953, Bedlington Grammar School pupil Charlton was spotted playing for East Northumberland schools by Manchester United chief scout Joe Armstrong.

He worked his way through the pecking order of teams, scoring regularly for the youth and reserve sides before he was handed his first team debut against Charlton Athletic in October 1956.

Charlton, still only 19, was selected for the game, which saw United goalkeeper Ray Wood carried off with a broken cheekbone after a clash with Villa centre forward Peter McParland.

Though Charlton was a candidate to go in goal to replace Wood ( in the days before substitutes, and certainly before goalkeeping substitutes ), it was teammate Jackie Blanchflower who ended up between the posts.

Charlton was an established player by the time the next season was fully underway, which saw United, as current League champions, become the first English team to compete in the European Cup.

Charlton, strapped into his seat, had fallen out of the cabin and when United goalkeeper Harry Gregg ( who had somehow got through a hole in the plane unscathed and begun a one-man rescue mission ) found him, he thought he was dead.

Gregg returned to the plane to try to help the appallingly injured Busby and Blanchflower, and when he turned around again, he was relieved to see that Charlton and Viollet, both of whom he had presumed to be dead, had got out of their detached seats and were looking into the wreckage.

Charlton suffered cuts to his head and severe shock and was in hospital for a week.

Charlton was the first injured survivor to leave hospital, Harry Gregg and Bill Foulkes were not hospitalized since they escaped uninjured.

Charlton was handed his debut as England romped home 4 – 0, with the new player gaining even more admirers after scoring a magnificent thumping volley dispatched with authority after a cross by the left winger Tom Finney.

In between, there was the pressing matter for Charlton of the 1966 World Cup for which England, as hosts, had not needed to qualify.

England defeated Argentina 1 – 0 – the game was the only one in which Charlton received a caution – and faced Portugal in the semi finals.

Charlton opened the scoring with a crisp side-footed finish after a run by Roger Hunt had forced the Portuguese goalkeeper out of his net ; his second was a sweetly struck shot after a run and pull-back from Geoff Hurst.

Charlton's next England game was his 75th as England beat Northern Ireland ; 2 caps later and he had become England's second most-capped player, behind the veteran Billy Wright, who was approaching his 100th appearance when Charlton was starting out and ended with 105 caps.

In 1969, Charlton was awarded the OBE for services to football.

Shortly before the World Cup Charlton was involved in the Bogotá Bracelet incident in which he and Bobby Moore were accused of stealing a bracelet from a jewellery store.
