To be fair, he's had a huge impact with regard to modern day football in England and has taken a football club to global proportions. It's just a shame that it's been right across the road from us and that we've had to live in the shadow for near all that time. Retiring now is his only option. He knows there is a lot of strength in the PL and he's not guaranteed anything anymore. His persecution of anything that threatens his club will only take him so far and his insistance that he now has the best team ever means that he can walk away at the height of popular opinion.
I do think he would have walked away last year if they'd won it so the thought that we forced his hand (and money) to stay on for the 20th gives me a little smile. But you know what's coming next, all that was put to the side last season when we won it. The life and times of Sir Alex McTaggart, plastered on every form of media outlet. Just take the media at the moment, painting a different story of the reality, stating that Taggart used to take losing well. Have they not seen him getting in the officials faces, not turning up for after game pressers or basically having a go at all and sundry when he bothered to turn up.
Anyway, that's over now but the question is 'Who's next in line'? Mourinho with his 'United were the better team' or Moyes with the 'I'm not signing a new contract' are both in the frame but who will it be; who do we not want to see at the Rags?
In the words of my Old Man, "Life will never be the same without Man City, so get it in while you can".
