About this book

FERGUSON steps onto the pitch one last time, the man who has dominated English football for 26 years. Cameras flash, scarves wave, and every fan seems to hold their breath. Players line up, applauding their manager, some wiping away tears. He addresses the crowd briefly, thanking everyone and urging them to support the next manager. The applause is unrelenting, a standing ovation that seems to last forever. Sir Alex Ferguson, 13 Premier League titles, 2 Champions League trophies, countless memories … the greatest era in Manchester United history comes to an unforgettable close.

Follow Ferguson’s historic reign at Old Trafford through a collection of authentic newspaper articles, curated from original reports that trace his journey from his appointment in 1986 to his farewell in 2013. Relive the defining moments — exactly as they were reported at the time.

– The first FA Cup triumph in 1990
– The treble-winning season of 1998 – 99
