My opinion is that he sold Yaap Stam away from Man Utd just because he wrote some very little sensitive stuff about Man Utd and then he got "fire" out very "proudly" by Fergie......... <img src="graemlins/nono.gif" border="0" alt="[No No]" />
Which biggest mistake do u think Fergie had made in his manager's life?

Best deal Fergie ever made - 16 million for a slowing central defender was excellent business.

it may be good business, but we are still owe 12 million, wonder when lazio's going to pay. maybe after they won the serie A this season?
hey,Man Utd lost the premiership title just because they sold off Stam.............and Man Utd had to waste 30 millions for Rio to find back the Man Utd's defensive rythmn,I don't think it's valueble
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who buys a striker who can only score when he comes on as a sub ?, that no_good_champions_league_winning_shite.
It was a mistake for last season, but we're over it now.
And I think Jaap was one of the best players ever to play for us, and people should stop slagging him off.

Ha ha, almost funny...
Can't really think of any... perhaps not signing Zidane when he had the chance...
Jip Jaap Jadda Jadda... <img src="graemlins/yawn.gif" border="0" alt="[Yawn]" />
the Zidane one probably rankled <img src="graemlins/snowman.gif" border="0" alt="[Snowman]" />

A lot of people, Weaste... When Jaap was here nearly everyone said he was one of the best defender in the world. But after he left suddenly many people claimed that he has passed it and has become one of the slowest defender in the world overnight.
Not signing Zidane when he had the chance.
There can be no other bigger mistake IMO.

What a load of crap. Our defense was in trouble BEFORE Stam was sold, not because.

IP check anyone?
I dont think at the time not sigining Zidane was a mistake. He was probably a bit shocked at how good Zizu became. His biggest mistake was not strengthening the squad after the treble IMO as a slide started which is only now starting to be turned back.
Letting Steve McLaren go. How did it happen ? He was the logical choice to take over eventually.
I think that the partnership of Stam and Fedinand would have been great.
i cant see how anyone could say that selling Stam for 16mill was the biggest mistake in fergies managerial life He did manage before United you know.
Hell its not even the biggest mistake of his United career. We got 16million for a 29 year old defender who wasnt playing to the best of his abilities for whatever reason.
If we're talking signings here i think Ralph Milne shades them all.
I also think letting Dwight Yorke get out of control & degrade so quickly was bad.
With hindsight we can say things like not signing zidane or Henry etc but isnt hindsight a great thing?

Not winding up Keegan even more after his "I'd love it" outburst
I've really really tried but I still cant think of one
Taibi, like everyone else was bought in good faith.
How can you pick out/on a mistake in someone who's brought in and then replaced players like; Cantona, Hughes, Ince, Bruce and Pally, Irwin, Smikes, Kanchelskis - and all with virtually no negative effects. The man is a genius (a real one, not like Ian Pearce!)

bingo! stam wasn't a bad move at all. not getting the money from nazio is! satm was not worth 16m when sold and he wasn't worth the points MU lost the title by!

wasnt exactly a slide after the treble was it
two championships to become the first team to ever win the premiership three times on the bounce, just shows how high the expectations are these days i suppose

With one foot in retirement, Fergie took his eye off the coaching and backroom staff last season and that had an effect from the youth team all the way to the senior squad.
I think the way he handled the whole retirement thing was pretty poor and he underestimated the knock on effect throughout the club.
Not a major deal in the grand scheme of things, but a mistake none the less.

Cantona. No doubt. Paying way too much for a total loser. He couldn't differenciate between a football and a brick of concrete. He never did anything for us. After he arrived our downfall really started.
