Watched the Alex ferguson film last night on channel 4. Every story needs a villain but to paint rangers in the way it was because of 1 director is poor. Any fans of that era was he a scapegoat or was he not up to what we expected?

He was not good enough for Rangers although a great manager according to my 85 year old father - Ferguson has never got over Rangers getting rid if him and it gave him a chip on his shoulder ever since ????.

He simply wasn't good enough and word from players of that era is that he was a troublemaker in the dressing room. Other players before him were married to Catholics, and he was married BEFORE he signed for Rangers. Ferguson was no scapegoat, it was sour grapes.

Ferguson is a rat how many chapters in books has he dedicated to former players he doesn't like and a lot of them were his former captains. Seems to me that if you have a problem with so many then maybe the problem lis within yourself. Don't like him we were lucky with Walter, you never heard him airing his negative views in public. I preferred Jim McLean to fergie at least he'd give you a punch in the mouth if he didn't like you ?.

Ferguson is probably the greatest manager ever but he was a very ordinary football player for Rangers. I watched him several times back in the 60s and didn't see what he brought to the team.

As the guys have said he simply wasn't good enpugh. The catholic thing was an excuse as other players at the time had catholic connections. Remember Davie White saying he felt let down as Ferguson did not do as he was asked during the 1969 cup final and lost 4-0. Colin Stein was suspended ot injured and Fergie knew he wouldn't have been playing had Stein been fit.

Yeah, Fergie definitely has a dislike for Rangers even to this day! All because he wasn’t good enough.

He doesn't strike me as the easiest person in the world to manage also didn't go on to play for anyone of note after us.

Sad to read the comments on Ferguson tv didn't show his early life the man bleeds Govan he lived 15 mins from Ibrox and his local team was GLASGOW RANGERS HE WOULD BE THE FIRST TO tell you he wasn't Rangers class as in those days Rangers struggled for strikers and as he was scoring goals the daily record promoted Rangers to sign him and speaking to his Gers team mates he spent most of the games against Celtic trying to impress his mates on the retracing by kicking any Celt that came near him for God's sake his first house in Manchester was called Fairfields after the Govan shipyard he once told his wife an ambition was to build a Bungalow in Govan Road when he turned down Rangers for management he was second choice to McLean of Dundee United but they were of the new generation of managers who had total control instead of the board deciding who played and as for hisbgreavence of not getting a game even in the reserves came from a guy Allison who thought that anything to do with catholicsvwas a no no we still have morons like that in our great club but I can assure you Ferguson is as true a blue as anybody I know I have eve seen a charachature of him with the champions league cup but if you look closely he is wearing a staff Rangers tie.

Remember him well Jaws. All elbows and industry but very little end product. Then there was Colin Stein. Btw I knew Willie Allison well. The man I knew certainly wasn't a bigot. I should know as my family is as cosmopolitan as it gets, if you know what I mean.
