"HE WOULD COMMAND A TOP WHACK" ALEX FERGUSON WANTED IN AUSTRALIAN TEAM
After spending 26 years as Manchester United, 71 year-old Alex Ferguson is still a hot cake even in retirement. A trillion and one Man U players/fans wish they can turn back the hands of time and none would deny the absence of ex Old Trafford boss isn’t felt.
Ex Man U goalkeeper, Mark Bosnich is itching to have Sir Alex Ferguson as the coach of Australian team, considering his tractrackrecord /managerial success, they particularly want him to lead the team to next year’s World Cup. Their coach was recently red-carded after The Socceroos’ consecutive defeats against Brazil and France.
“We’ve been throwing around a lot of names but there’s one person that I haven’t heard mentioned – even though I’ve got more reason than anyone not to suggest him, I’m just being honest and have had experience under him, so know what he’s like – it is Sir Alex Ferguson.
That name hasn’t been put about, but we need someone of that ilk. He would command a top whack, but in life, and especially in sport, you get what you pay for. If you want the very best, you’re going to have to pay for the best.”
HAPPY EID MUBARAK
PHOTO: A WELL-DESERVED HONOUR FOR SIR ALEX FERGUSON
So much honour for the old boss. First it was a statue, now a street in his name, the legendary erstwhile Manchester United boss, Sir Alex Ferguson deserves all the honour. The street which is located at Old Trafford ground used to be called Waters Reach, it was renamed Sir Alex Ferguson Way and unveiled today.
His reaction to the honour, "It encapsulates probably the last 26 years coming to the great club, the history of it. It's been an incredible journey for me, ending today for me to unveil this road sign. I'm really proud of that and I'm proud of everyone who has been associated with the club. I'd like to thank
Manchester United for inviting me down here, 26 years ago. It was a fantastic elevation in my life and a challenge I accepted."
He continued, "And we are where we are now. It's a great, great football club. You, the supporters, have enjoyed it. And I still think that a lot of our young fans don't remember that there were bad days. Dealing with bad days is what we're good at. This club will always go on. To have a part of Trafford carrying my name is truly humbling."
KRIS CHEATED ON BRUCE- KRIS JENNER'S SISTER OPENS UP IN NEW INTERVIEW
Still on Kris and Bruce Jenner's separation. is done and dusted, the couple or better still ex couples have moved on. Kris's sister, Karen Houghton recently granted an interview on the issues that led to the collapse of the 22-year marriage.
She began by saying Kris admitted cheating on her former hubby, Bruce Jenner, "It's so funny because I could never see a guy cheating on her. She's so powerful. Kris even went so far as to meet up with her ex-lover on an episode of KUWTK." She added.
"But as for Bruce, I do not believe that he has ever cheated on Kris … And I don't think he ever will, if they stay together." And if they divorce? "Bruce will find someone else. But I guarantee you, Kris will find someone in two days. I promise!"
On Kris' attitude, "My sister is a person who likes to stay really busy, focused, in control, done, done, ABC, you know. And even a little bit anal. But I think that's because when you have situations inside of you that aren't filling your complete happiness, there's a hole in you. And I think right now, Kris has that hole in her because of what's going on with the family right now."
She also mentioned that In Lamar Odom's drug use and infidelity also complicated the whole matter. "The stress was beyond what any mother could take. And then, you know, Kanye had moved in with Kim, so the house was kind of crazy, and I think there was to much on her plate. And then Bruce moved out … I don't think Kris knew how to handle it. I think she tried her very best, she's amazing, but I just think she couldn't do it all."

SIGNING GARETH BALE A BIG ERROR BY MADRID- DOCTOR
That footballers sustain injuries is a fact that shouldn't be subject to any arguement. What however makes that of world's most expensive player, Gareth Bale a hot topic is the way Madrid according to spanish media is playing down the seriousness of the injury.
A spanish Doctor Dr Avelino Parajon however thinks buying the star was a big error and rip off. He has his reasons, "If Real Madrid have signed Gareth Bale knowing about this protrusion, they have committed an error. That is not to say that tomorrow it can be operated on and he can continue playing, like has happened many times.
"But if he already has problems with protruding discs, that indicates that it is not a one-off. When a person has those problems at that age, it suggests that he has a great possibility of suffering herniated discs and symptoms arising from that over time. It is a bad sign for any athlete."
Madrid was quick enough to debunk A spanish print media (Marca)'s earlier report that the £86million ex Spurs striker has a slipped disc and needs surgery. "He only has small chronic disc protrusion, which is extremely common among football players and that does not in any case affect them in the normal course of their duties." They stated.
All the best Bale. Wish him speedy recovery
