Well end of an era. Not that I have ever been a Man U fan, but no-one could question the dedication this man has put into football.

When Charlton were in the Premiership (those were the days), I use to hate extra time and the "Ferguson minute". That aside though he will be missed.

Alex Ferguson on behalf of Football (Soccer) I salute you !

Moyes favourite to take over.

Its called "Fergie Time'

Im sure he will go down in history as one of the greats.
I doubt there will ever be another manager who will stay at any club that long.
So let the madness and speculation begin on who will replace him.
From a band wagon, glory hunting plastic Manc I thank you Sir Alex.

I suppose it is un-British of me to have seen the thread header and thought of pee.

"Professor Henry Brubaker, from the Institute for Studies, said: “The one thing that puts people off visiting Britain is the very real prospect of being accosted in the street by an inexplicably furious Scotsman."

Angry Scotsman to be released into community

Would Moyes take it, he is safe in his job and taking on Man U after Fergie would possible a huge poison chalice !

Moyes was leaving anyway

Yawn yawn and double yawn. Why the BBC New webpage has this above the Queen's Speech on immigration is mystifying. Not even national news, it should be on the sports pages.

SAF > Queen FACT

You do work for her majesty, you know?! At least indirectly. Careful or it will be off with your head

because a damn sight more people are interested in football than politics

And therein lies the reason the country is in a mess.

It's as if he's died. And that's just from reading the guardian!!

That's better than what's appearing in the broadsheets! Too right.

Whoever takes over from Sir Alex is on a hiding to nothing anyway. Win another title or three for Utd, you inherited Fergie's team and had little to do.

Screw up, your career's probably finished!


I think Fergie's going to be another Abramovich, minus the Billions!
