    Doubt Fergie will relinquish his power.

    Read an article the other day ago and he was shouting about another 10 years! The guy will be wheeled out of Old Trafford by the looks of it.

    Would love Mourinho to take over there, he always talks about it - it's obvious he is dying for the job. BUT Man United love a long term project, none of this short - termism pish that Jose deploys.

    This is the biggest rumour going since the last time he was going to retire.

    Would rather see Jose go there than Chelsea.

    I think this might be the time he actually retires.

    Jose is suited to a club like Chelsea.

    He was very lucky in his career at times:icon_mrgreen:

    November 1978: Fergie in Glasgow making history as the first football manager to take his sacking to an industrial tribunal claiming unfair dismissal. Alex Ferguson lost his job at St Mirren. St Mirren chairman William Scott told the tribunal Ferguson had been sacked for the 'improper carrying out of his duties'. St Mirren won the case:icon_mrgreen:

    One of the greatest mangers in the game. Amazing haul of trophies. Didnt think he would retire this season. Just the other day he said he saw this team as a project and was leaving anytime soon.

    Mourinho or Moyes? Wonder if this will affect the Ronaldo situation.

    Mourinho won't go. It will be Moyes but i would like Paul Lambert there.
