An achievement is
not an easy package, it is not a pick and walk away objects. To achieve
a goal one should enjoys certain qualities. All needed are hard working,
dedication, passion, loads patients and bit of luck.
Of course, a certain quotients of supports also require from the people around
you, without it often all the efforts could ends up in a failure.
Today I am writing
about a man who is sitting on the pile of achievement and he is doing it for
last twenty-five years. His job is tougher as he is competing at the
highest level. Managing a world famous football club and at the same time he
have to manage a bunch of worlds richest, famous and head strong
footballer. This page is my tribute to the Sir Alex Ferguson, man who is
having all qualities that a man need to achieves the goal, my god I am talking
about goals yes scoring goals his first priority and he is having thousands in
his kitty.
Sir Alexander Ferguson was born in Glasgow , Scotland .
He was a Scottish association football manager and former player too. In 1969,
after twenty-four extra-ordinary years when Sir Mat Busby retired, Manchester
United struggled to find a proper manager and worst result was that the
relegated in 1974 but promoted back within a year. Ron Atkinson was then
given the job and after a brief success, he failed to achieve what needed from
him. Finally 1986, 6th November Alex Ferguson appointed as Manager of
the club. His tenure has seen the club
go through an era of success and dominance both in England
and in Europe, giving Ferguson
a reputation as one of the most admired and respected managers in the history
of the game. Under him, Manchester United's 1998–99 season was the most
successful in English club football history as they became the first team to
win the Premier League, FA Cup and UEFA Champions League – "The
Treble" – in the same season.

On 11 October 1999,
a special testimonial match was played in honour of Ferguson 's contribution to the team.
Manchester United played against a team dubbed "Rest of the World
XI", managed by Ottmar Hitzfeld, with his team consisting of names such as
Henrik Larsson, Gianluca Vialli, Cafu, Paul Gascoigne, George Weah, Peter
Schmeichel and Eric Cantona, but with 20 minutes to go there was a mass
substitution of their players, who were replaced by a former Manchester United
XI; Peter Schmeichel, Paul Parker, Clayton Blackmore, Steve Bruce, Gary
Pallister, Darren Ferguson, Mark Hughes, Lee Sharpe, and three number sevens:
Bryan Robson, David Beckham and Eric Cantona. The World XI won the game 4–2. On
6th November 2011, when he completed twenty-five years in Old Trafford,
the North stand was named after him.
Sir Alex also having a fair share of controversies
throughout his life but every successful man had a few or more. So, leave that
few we awed by the man and his awesome achievements.
!!!Being a diehard
MANUTD fan, looking forward to Sir Alex and many more silverwares!!!
