End of an era as Fergie stands down

May 8, 2013 by Tony Bugby

Manchester United have confirmed Sir Alex Ferguson is to retire at the end of the season.

In a statement, the club said he will stand down after the West Bromwich Albion game on May 19 and join the football club’s board.

The 71-year-old has won 38 trophies since taking over from Ron Atkinson in 1986.

“The decision to retire is one that I have thought a great deal about and one that I have not taken lightly. It is the right time,” said Ferguson.
