IT’S UNLIKELY ANYONE will ever come close to matching the record of Sir Alex Ferguson in his 27 years at Old Trafford.
In nearly three decades of unprecedented success for Manchester United, Ferguson secured 13 league titles in addition to a host of other trophies
In the midst of his success in September 2002, Ferguson declared: “My greatest challenge was knocking Liverpool right off their f****** perch.”
Domestically he undoubtedly succeeded in helping United to surpass Liverpool’s long-standing record of 18 league titles but in winning two European Cups he couldn’t quite match their five trophies.
Here’s the roll of honour in full:
Premier League (13): 1992-93, 1993-94, 1995-96, 1996-97, 1998-99, 1999-2000, 2000-01, 2002-03, 2006-07, 2007-08, 2008-09, 2010-11, 2012-13

Ernie els question got me
Sames
And yet you both got the third leg of the women’s sevens is being held in what city question? I’m just wondering why “who gives a shïte?” wasn’t an option for that question
Anyone you knew all the answers bar the Els one deserves top marks. If you seriously knew the answer to the Antrim hurling manager question, our Fifa world ranking and some question about a women’s rugby tournament then well played, and this without Google searches of course!
