Sir Alex Ferguson

[jammin]

Interesting very interesting a decade with a manu fan god almighty

Haha yea. At least he knows his football, I respect his loyalty, and he hates the sub-continent bandwagon "Man U" fans as much as me.

Last season was amazing as a ManUre hater. That 6-1 (I was screaming MARIO BALOTELLI! the whole game), CL elimination, and that epic final day trolling from City. His reaction was just priceless. Locked himself in his room for the week.

And then this season RVP had to ruin everything.

But by far the worst day was our loss to them with Leo. Worst part was that I had been taunting him pre-game with the fact that we have always beaten them (at least in the games I watched). That was just painful.

om my god milan telecast used to be horrible I hated carlo ancelotti

game starts at 1 .. he sucks for 2 hours in the league and then i had to get up at 5 am .. shit
Now the neo sports is atleast showing all milan games

I didn't even have a channel that showed Serie A til 2008. I remember I had to watch Sports Centre to try and get a glimpse of Milan.

CL though, I watched all Milan matches.

ESPNStar has rights to EPL, Serie A and La Liga now.

But thankfully, our schedule has been excellent and hasn't clashed that much with the big EPL games.

Neo only has Bundesfodder now.

 

[Senatore_M84]

Can't believe it


I thought he'd manage forever

 

[Az.]

Hats off, legend of the game.

 

[Dottore Joey]

Respect to Ferguson.

"My greatest challenge is not what’s happening at the moment, my greatest challenge was knocking Liverpool right off their fucking perch. And you can print that."



Was looking at some of his best quotes trough the years, have to say thats pretty funny

greatest ever

Fergie is a testament to great club leadership and maangement. They stuck by him for 3 years without a trophy, and more years of non-challenge.

They let him truly clean up the club, and mold it in his image. And look at the long term success.

a parallel can be drawn with klopp at borussia if you want, he's in year 5 or 6, but it took a few years to turn it around.

In todays football, this is a rarity, and that's a shame. Management doesn't know how to run shit in most places for sustained success.

 

[ww]

I only respect coaches that got choked by gattuso

 

[ladro]

2 CLs won? As good as carlo then, not bad.

Cant wait to to see manure sink back to irrelevancy now. hope we get their asian/entire fanbase. Buy honda plox!

I don't know what to make of a United without Ferguson though

a less cuntish united perhaps?

Close thread or rename to something similar to the Barcelona thread, right now this is just a troll thread

 

[Pipa]

I told him in the morning about rumours that Fergie was retiring and he just brushed them off saying it was the same old bullshit. Then when we were eating lunch, CNN broke the news, and I saw him do a 'wtf ' face and muttering to himself as he rushed to his laptop in his room. Fucker's been glued to it since.

He's still hoping it's gonna be Mourinho and he's gonna bring in Ronaldo.

I don't know why I laughed at this

 

[Dejan Savicevic]

Greatest club manager of all time IMO. Manure will be soulless for time being

you are an idiot? Well I dont have a doubt you are a no name loser IRL.

Ignore Christian. He's the type of poster who contributes nothing, yet loves to downgrade others. Has absolutely no clue about anything either - hprrible ignorant. Nothing to do with his anti-United agenda either btw as there's plenty of posters who dislike(d) MUFC but still speak a lot of sense. He isn't one of them, however.

Genuinely one of the worst posters of all time on this forum, and I've been on here since January 2008.

Interesting.

Im going to think abt this n then make a list of Fergie's good buys.

 

[Calum1903]

Today is the 30th anniversary of Ferguson's first European trophy.



I'm still waiting to see my club run by people with a fraction of his drive and ambition.

 

[MilanShion]

Gl to him in the future.

[joyrider]

i hope manutd will start being crap again


Great respect to SAF

 

[Jivara]

I began reading his autobiography the day before he announced his retirement, weird.

 

[samir10]

I have huge respect for this guy. Born winner. Winning is in his DNA.

 

[Massaro94]

Kinda flopped hard in the UCL though.

I mean if you look at the 4 times his team reached the final .... on atleast 3 of those occasions his team deserved to get beat.... 99, 09 11.... 08 was boring and even then i think cfc probably deserved it.

His record against the top sides in europe was also terrible.... real, barca, milan, munich.

Decent manager.... but most definitely not the greatest of all time.... not in the top 5 or maybe even the top 10.

As one united fan put it.... i'll respect him for the trophies.... but where was our galacticos... we had the money yet didn't go out and build a super team.
