HAHA Why does everybody hate him!?
Yep they should have lost by way more!
Who would have ever thought many years ago that Fergie's statement was actually meant and would be achieved? People must have laughed at him at the time due to the success and dominance of Liverpool then.
I never laughed at him because United should have dominated from the 60's onwards, they just needed a decent manager. They've always been a glamour club and the best supported club in the country to my knowledge which goes back to The 50's. The fact that Liverpool were the top team for so long was actually something of a miracle considering the club was almost bankrupt after 10 years in the old second division and they had little support outside of the Merseyside area. Just as Arsenal in the 30's, Leeds in the 60's and Liverpool in the 70's and 80's, ManU's dominance will eventually end, the problem is that the Club I see most likely to end it will probably be Man City and I doubt that any club not in the current Top 6 will win the Premiership in the next 25 years.
A lot of people hate Fergie because he's ManU's manager but to me I don't like his childish attitude towards The BBC, he's a bad loser and even worse, a bad winner. Great manager for sure, but as a person he just not in the same league as his fellow Scots Bill Shankly and Mat Busby
