This is all in Spanish, but AS has a tribute to Fergie available to read online. It, erm, looks lovely... if anyone can translate any salient bits, they should do it and do it for free.

The first page translates to 'Ferguson's Faults'.
I wonder when it sinks in...still hasn't yet.
We'll have to face it when Moyes is officially presented (if he ever returns from this 6 month holiday he's on
), but it'll be the Community Shield or maybe the first game at OT when there'll be no hiding from the facts - Sir Alex has left Thought I was completely over him until now. At Wimbledon, the commentator said "...Sir Alex Ferguson is now sitting with one of his players...or should I say one of his former players...Nemanja Vidic".
My initial reaction was "feck Vidic is gone?!?".

Bit retarded of you.
Vidic is gone?
Sky Sports News had a reporter trying to ask him questions before he went in, while he was walking. He kept giving one word answers as he walked, and then the final question asked was 'how are you enjoying retirement' to which he replied 'its only been 3 days' with a properly cheeky cnut grin on his face 
He must be having his hip surgery soon.

Another one from today:
This season is going to be weird without Fergie.
Can't Moyes where a Sir Alex face mask or something, for the first few games at least?

First pre-season game is in a couple of weeks, isn't it? Will be strange seeing Moyes lead us out.
Nicely done.
really well done..
I still can't believe he isn't our manager.
Greatest manager ever, no doubt whatsoever.
The first reply in this thread.
Everyone thought it was bollocks when we first heard it .

I remember the night well, I was shitting it.
Just saw the thread title and thought to myself 'feck, Fergie's retiring!!!!!', before remembering that it already happened and that we already have a replacement.
I think it'll take about 5 years before it fully sinks in.

I didn't hear any of the rumours that night, as I was on a megabus back up north, then went straight to bed. Woke up the next morning, and Lorraine Kelly announced it on some shite morning TV. That was a bad day.
He's gone very quiet, probably on purpose. I miss his interviews
Mates and I had a FIFA tournament going that night. All anyone could talk about. I spent 5 hours telling their gleeful faces it had to be bollocks and they'd look like fools in the morning after Fergie had refuted it....
Woke up that morning, checked my phone and found a bazillion messages. Didn't even have to read them to know what had happened.
Irreplaceable. Legend, took United to another level.
Where is he? I miss his face.
This thread needs to stop being bumped it seriously gives me the pissers seeing that title. So depressing.
Anyone know when SAF's hip surgery is? We should send him some flowers or summat from the cafe.
i miss him.
Lindo
I've just spent an hour watching the fairwell speech and all the tribute shows and youtube montages of the great man. I think I needed to see it all again one last time before the new era starts properly in a couple of weeks
I miss him already :-(
Woops
Heart still skips a beat when I see this thread title sometimes. Weird.
Weird.leave me alone.
ESPN reckons that's Fergie.
