DANNY MURPHY meets WES BROWN to get the inside track on Sir Alex Ferguson

Daily Mail  

With Sir Alex Ferguson celebrating his 80th birthday on New Year’s Eve, Danny Murphy met Manchester United Champions League winner Wes Brown to get the inside track on Britain’s greatest manager… I don’t usually venture to Old Trafford for obvious reasons but Sir Alex Ferguson’s birthday was worthy of a special visit to meet my old foe Wes Brown to chat about the Premier League’s most iconic figure. Brown was guided by Ferguson all the way from the Man United academy to winning trophies ‘Nobby Stiles got me in at United and I’d started training at Lyttleton Road. ‘At United, there were many great players who’d won things like Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs but every player still worked hard and respected each other. So he left and the team quickly moved on.’ All good things have to end and while Roy Keane never forgave Ferguson for his departure, most former United players left on good terms.
