KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Respect and happy retirement Alex Ferguson

From someone who hated his guts but now respects him a lifelong Liverpool fan. I cant give greater respect than that.

Good riddance to him there is no doubting his talent or success but he had far to much influence over both the FA and referees. As a united fan that is great and an important factor in success but for the rest of the football world this may level the playing field slightly. A fantastic manager all the same and all respect due but all good things come to an end

Oh great. The loving begins. He was a great manager. Leave it at that.

perhaps he is coming to liverpool FSG have history in employing has been managers

Another go at FSG...it's getting sad Stan.

He announced his retirement in 2002 - 10 years of added time is a lot even by his standards!

I agree its hard to admit but its true .

Maggie and now Bacon Face,your choice of heroes leave a lot to be desired Stan.

We can't deny how good he's been but fukk all this tribute crap.

Both very successful people shaggy who changed history one saved a country from the knackkers yard another overtook Liverpool. Both were in power for around 20 years both were hated at the start but shown respect in the end by their enemies
