Around 2,500 fans and the entire Manchester United first team squad, including Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie, were present at Old Trafford today to get a look at a 9ft bronze statue of the living legend Sir Alex Ferguson as it was unveiled by Ferguson’s wife, Lady Kathy following a ceremony that paid tribute to his 26 glorious years at United.
"It’s a really proud moment for me," Sir Alex said, before joking: "Normally people die before they have a statue. I’m outliving death!”
"The boss [Lady Cathy] is a fantastic person. Someone has to control me and she’s the only one who can. She has promised that every Saturday morning she’s going to come down and bow to the statue!"
* Thats funny!
