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.

Good old Paddy.

"It's a load of rubbish" Paddy Crerand's angry rant denying Fergie's departure from Old Trafford
8 May 2013 13:29

Former United hero launched into long rant against the press after dismissing stories about Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement as "a load of rubbish"

Manchester United legend Paddy Crerand will be feeling a little embarrassed this afternoon following the news that Sir Alex Ferguson is retiring as United manager at the end of the season.

Reports were all over the back pages this morning, suggesting that Fergie was on the verge of stepping down, and Crerand appeared as a guest on the Newstalk 106-108FM breakfast show to angrily deny the stories, just minutes before the club made an official statement confirming Sir Alex's departure.

"I'm just laughing," said the United legend when quizzed about Sir Alex's departure from Old Trafford.

"I think people must sit up at night and think now, 'What can I do to make a sensational story?'

"I was at Manchester United last night for three hours, maybe longer than that, four hours... not a murmur about it."

"I think it's a load of rubbish."

What followed was a lengthy rant at the press, before stating that if Fergie was going to leave United, he'd know about it before the press pack did.

"I think I'd be closer to the situation at Manchester United than most of those press guys would be - and I don't believe a word of it."

At the end of the segment, the presenter joked: "I would love to play that back to Paddy if all it all turns out to be true!"

Milan - 13
Man Utd - Sir Alex"

Fergie was some man for one man



So Moyes will be the new manager (to be made official tomorrow) maybe United see a Jürgen Klopp in him? e.g producing his best when joining a bigger club.

Can see Moyes sorting out the problematic left back position by signing baines.

Probaly at the stage to leave Everton for Cl football, 28, not getting any younger.

What the above chart fails to show is that Bayern Munich won their League in  1986–87, 1988–89, 1989–90. Barcelona won La Liga 1990–91 and 1991–92, Copa del Rey 1987–88, 1989–90 and the European Cup 1991–92. Real Madrid won La Liga 1986–87, 1987–88, 1988–89, 1989–90. Copa Del Rey 1988–89.

20 years ago United won their first title in 26 years & the above chart shows the last 20 years. Fergie also won plenty before 1992-93 which include 2 cup winners cup,League cup,FA Cup, 3 Scottish Premier league titles etc..

Real Madrid have had 24 managers in the time Fergie has been at MU.


That's what you call stability.

I can't see Moyes receiving much patience.

I think he'll get a fair crack at it.
If United finish second next season and are knocked out of Europe early it's no worse than the 2011/12 season. Hopefully he can start off with a win the Community Shield and just take it from there.

I can't see United letting a scenario develop like the Roy Hodgson situation when he was at Liverpool. Manager's need time, I'm confident United understand that.
