Man Utd Thread:

To celebrate Sir Alex Ferguson's career, all Premier games this weekend will have a minute's applause in the 97th minute

2 Champions league was a poor enough return, reall,y for all that Premiership dominance
Barca won 4 , AC Milan won 5, Real won 3 and even Liverpool were just one behind Manure 

In fairness it was 1993 before Ferguson won the league and in the last twenty years only AC Milan,Barcelona (three each) have won the champions league more than United have.

Remarkable the longevity and success he had.

That last tika taka torture session in the final of the CL must have been really painful. In fairness Barca won 2 of their 3 finals against him . A bit like Kerry and Mayo.

I heard Man Utd fans are going to get a cut in ticket prices for next season as matches are going to be several minutes shorter.

More like Tyrone v Kerry in 2005,2008 All Ireland finals.

Whether you love or loathe him you have to accept he is/was a colossus in English football.

He will be missed but football will amble on without him.

For what it is worth I reckon Brian Clough was the best manager in  England in my lifetime ...................... bringing 2 European Cups to Nottingham Forest .... what an achievement. AF a very close 2nd.

As well as League titles to Derby and Forest! Different times and he had Peter Taylor who found players.

Peter Taylor was the best talent scout/asst manager England has ever seen, unreal eye for a bargain and he was instrumental in all of Clough's triumphs.

Nobody touches Ferguson on the managerial stakes in Engerland, not even the great Busby, Shankley or Paisley quite got to his level.

By the way, he is British so why not call him Sir Alex?

Rooney to Chelsea ?

If it means them not getting Falcao or the big Lewbowski. All day long.

Can't see utd and Chelsea being direct rivals next season if Moyes takes charge.

Imagine if you were a Liverpool supporter waiting on 1st premiership and with no prospect of it happening.

You sound worried! Chances are Utd will be ok! They have allot of money, a winning culture and a big name behind them.
