On behalf of Stretford-End, I would like to wish a very happy birthday to Manchester United’s longest-serving manager. Sir Alex Ferguson will celebrate his 69th birthday today. His appetite for success certainly hasn’t diminished with age as he continues to chase glory both domestically and in Europe. Sir Alex once said in an interview, “my greatest challenge was knocking Liverpool right off their fucking perch.” Leading United to record 19th league title at the age of 69 would do exactly that.
