Sir Alex Ferguson - retired.
Seeing this is going to hurt for a while I reckon.

About the same as "Sir Alex Ferguson, the former Manchester United manager,..."
I can't believe it, being in Leeds is the worst possible place to be right now, no tribute thread on a forum will be enough, gutted, it was going to happen but feck me it hurts...
The lengths the man will go to to get out of buying a midfielder.
I don't know...everyone at my work has been (in their own way) saying what a sad day this is for football.
Oh feck off
This will take such a long time to sink in, but is never going to feel right.
Yeah, probably.
I got the blame for going out of the groups in last years CL and City winning the title too.
I have history
I just feel numb right now. And very emotional. As a 'younger' United fan, Fergie is all I've known, and I probably took him for granted in all honesty. This all just feels so surreal right now. Like we all knew it would happen one day, but at the same time, didnt think it ever would. (if that makes sense?)
First Thatcher dies and now Fergie retires.

I've decided that it's all RVP's fault for jumping over him.
feck off RVP.
feck off RVP.
well played.Anyone had a little cry yet?
Gutted by this.
It's not a surprise to hear it. We all knew it was coming. But it still takes a bit of believing when you actually know it's finally happened.
I'm glad for him, I hope that he's retiring with his health mostly intact, and can only wish him a long and happy (semi) retirement. I say semi because I've no doubt we'll be seeing plenty of him around the world, with the team and without, acting as an ambassador for the club.
Good luck to him
- and to us

I'm close. I'm not afraid to admit it.
Thank you Sir Alex, you are Manchester United.Words cannot express...
I just hope that van Persie turns out to be a monumental signing that gives us that extra cushion of individual brilliance that helps ease the transition for the manager. Obviously any success over the next couple of seasons will be largely built on Sir Alex's squad-building skills but it's always nice to have that one player you can point to and say - he won us the title. Would be fitting if Sir Alex's last major signing is the player that continues on that success at a time when the old guard are retiring.
Remember last time he 'retired'... ten more years yet!?
Well said.
No,Fergie,please.I'm gonna kill myself.
You shouldn't.
Jesus.
Christ. Don't sweat it fella, this is Manchester United we're talking about here.
I wouldn't have thought Giggs would outlast him.
Rene Meulensteen seems shocked.
Fergie once said "Don't compare me to that woman" when someone brought up a Thatcher comparison before.
Fred the red gets Rene's vote to take over.
The only Manchester United I've known has had Sir Alex as manager, as will have been the case for a lot of fans, this is just crazy. I was really hoping this isn't what I woke up to.
