Default How worried are you about Ferguson retiring?

It'll bring a new experience to a lot of united supporters. The new boss in charge, the question marks over whether they're good enough to take over from Ferguson. We sure as hell won't have a manager that lasts another 20+ years, I just hope we don't get the 5 managerial changes in 6 years or whatever Chelsea/Liverpool have.

It'll be a depressing experience for me personally, and a strange and unnerving one too.

Think he''ll be around for a good while yet, doesn't look anywhere near to retiring!

The only one capable of taking over atm the moment is Maureen, unfortunately i'm not sure he will continue United's tradition. One things for sure we would win trophies while he was manager but at what cost?

It'll be a complete nightmare tbh. Maureen would win things, but he's not without his drawbacks.

The board will probably enter a panicky spiral of appointments, going Moyes - Eriksson - Hodgson - Redknapp - George Graham - Peter Reid - Brian Horton.

Depends on the squad he leaves behind.

Pretty sure I could manage Barcelona succesfully at the minute.

I'd just nod a lot and they'd win.

im starting to think he wont go without not only surpassing the magical 18, but he'll want his 3rd european cup.

He could be here another 5 years I reckon.

Massively, never known nowt else tbh. I have learned not to question his methods bar the odd shit player as 99/100 times he proves you wrong.

I'm going to hate the new manager for the same reasons I hated Teddy or would hate a new Dad.

When he retires, I might just stop watching. I'm not sure I can take the pain

It does obviously depend on the squad and the debt levels/owners but basically shit scared
