Sir Alex Ferguson is a global sporting icon. You think Harvard University just takes any shmo off the street to give a lecture? I don't care what he did. For what he did for Manchester United he deserves a lifetime job at that club. Even if he were handing out the Ferrero Roche and look regal, it's still more than the likes of Mata, Di Maria, Lingard, sancho, Antony have done, and they've taken out hundreds of million. As has the Glazers. The £29.7bn net worth Jim Ratcliffe has also sacked 250 low paid employees. Wonder how many tears he'll shed whilst he's on his private jet and his superyacht. Strange that Mr Ratcliffe doesn't hold any issue with the Glazer lining their own pockets with hundreds of million from dividends at United. 2 hours ago, Chripper said: Learn what?

I was referring to your statement that Ratcliffe is OK with that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did he do ? Hand out the Ferrero Roche and look regal ? Pretty much, it's keep them sweet money that many clubs give out to those viewed positively by fans(and fergie's stock is probably the highest in the world for that) £2 million is cheap as f**k than the cost Ferguson could do if he decides to meet with everyone and anyone badmouthing current players/management/owners. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
