Sir Alex announced his retirement as manager of Manchester
United after 27 years in the role. He has gone out in a blaze of
glory, with United winning the Premier League for the 13th time,
and he is widely considered to be the greatest manager in the
history of British football.
Over the last quarter of a century there have been seismic
changes at Manchester United. The only constant element has been
the quality of the manager''s league-winning squad and United''s run
of success, which included winning the Champions League for a
second time in 2008. Sir Alex created a purposeful, but welcoming,
and much envied culture at the club which has lasted the test of
time.
Sir Alex saw Manchester United change from a conventional
football club to what is now a major business enterprise, and he
never failed to move with the times. It was directly due to his
vision, energy and ability that he was able to build teams both on
and off the pitch. He was a man-manager of phenomenal skill, and
increasingly he had to deal with global stars. His relationship
with Cristiano Ronaldo, for instance, was excellent and David
Beckham has described Sir Alex as a father figure.
Over the past four years, Sir Alex has been reflecting on and
jotting down the highlights of his extraordinary career and in his
new book he will reveal his amazing story as it unfolded, from his
very early days in the tough shipyard areas of Govan.
關於作者：
Raised in the tough Govan district of Glasgow, where his father
was a shipyard worker, Alex Ferguson started his own working life
as an apprentice toolmaker. He went on to play for Queen''s Park and
five other professional football clubs including the idols of his
boyhood, Rangers. Needless to say he was known as a hard and
awkward opponent on the field as well as off it. Intelligent and
quick-witted, Alex Ferguson followed his father''s lead as a deeply
committed socialist.
