I was 7 at the time, I remember my Dad being absolutely delighted at the prospect of Ferguson arriving, he was convinced he would be the perfect man

He's pretty upbeat about Moyes too tbf.

Anyway I recall SAF being thought of as dour IIRC and every man and his dog thought Jock football was shite.
Think he was fourth choice, with Ron Saunders approached too.

Yes, I think so. And weren't United knocked back for Venables in 1986??

equivalent of fergie joining us in 1986 would be mourinho joining us now. instead we have bug eyes
You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about mate. Take it from someone who was a red when it went down, it was not like that at all. Venables and Robson were the popular choices, Fergie was a distant third and surprisingly enough the consensus was that the hiring lacked ambition.

Now go away.
