'Football. Bloody hell.' The longest serving and most successful manager in British football history shocked the world by finally retiring in May 2013 and instantly created more column inches and twitter mentions that the death of Margaret Thatcher. And he wasn't just the greatest, but also one of the most outspoken, engaging and witty voices from the game, as this book proves. Here is the history of his supreme verbal sparring during his years at Manchester United - the man in his own words (with a few additional thoughts from those who knew him best and crossed swords with him most). 'There's nothing wrong with losing your temper once in a while if it's for the right reasons.' "If he was an inch taller he'd be the best centre-half in Britain. His father is 6ft 2in - I'd check the milkman". (On Gary Neville). "He could start a row in an empty house". (On Denis Wise). 'The list of gentle, naturally retiring men who have been successful in their attempts at running clubs isn't a long one, is it?'

Sir Alex announced his retirement as manager of Manchester United after 27 years in the role.  He has gone out in a blaze of glory, with United winning the Premier League for the 13th time, and he is widely considered to be the greatest manager in the history of British football.  Over the last quarter of a century there have been seismic changes at Manchester United. The only constant element has been the quality of the manager's league-winning squad and United's run of success, which included winning the Champions League for a second time in 2008.  Sir Alex created a purposeful, but welcoming, and much envied culture at the club which has lasted the test of time.  Sir Alex saw Manchester United change from a conventional football club to what is now a major business enterprise, and he never failed to move with the times.  It was directly due to his vision, energy and ability that he was able to build teams both on and off the pitch.  He was a man-manager of phenomenal skill, and increasingly he had to deal with global stars.  His relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo, for instance, was excellent and David Beckham has described Sir Alex as a father figure. Over the past four years, Sir Alex has been reflecting on and jotting down the highlights of his extraordinary career and in his new book he will reveal his amazing story as it unfolded, from his very early days in the tough shipyard areas of Govan.
