The extraordinary career of Sir Alex Ferguson - the most successful British manager of all time - is celebrated at the 2005 HMV Football Extravaganza, to be held at Londonââ‚Ã⠀šÃ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢s Grosvenor House Hotel on Tuesday 29 March.

Sir Alex, who earlier this season celebrated his 1000th game in charge of United, will be the recipient of the HMV Lifetime Achievement Award, sponsored by Nationwide.

He joins a very select list of British football legends to have received the award †“ John Charles (1997); Sir Stanley Matthews (1998); Nat Lofthouse (1999); Brian Clough (2000); Sir Bobby Robson (2001); Sir Bobby Charlton (2002); Tony Adams (2003) and Kenny Dalglish (2004).

Awww, blind jealousy is such a nasty habit :D

Re: [Merged] Football talk
 

I suppose it takes a few years to get over things like this :D

Re: [Merged] Football talk
 

Ooooh, now that's got to leave a mark :D

Re: [Merged] Football talk
 

Nothing to do with that game. I just laugh at Beasant and Ron Atkinson every time I think about it.

We didn't play too badly, just individual defensive errors.

Re: [Merged] Football talk
 

Yeah, all 8 of them...

Re: [Merged] Football talk
 

the list looked so good until you came to Tony Adams.. surely Bryan Robson or Shilton or Banks are better players than him

Re: [Merged] Football talk
 

I don't think its for how good a player you are, its for what you've achieved. Adams overcame alcohol addiction and also did a lot of work to help other sports people who were battling with their own addictions.

Mainly Beasant and Harkes. They had a mare.

We weren't doing too badly until Solksjaer came on.

"You are my Solskjaer, my Ole Solskjaer, you make me happy when the skies are gray, cuz when its boring you just keeping scoring, so please don't take my Solskjaer away"

Re: [Merged] Football talk
 

I was talking about the goals...

Re: [Merged] Football talk
 

Well, they were probably tired then - that sort of thing really takes it out of you :disturbd:

Re: [Merged] Football talk
 

that's not the one I sing me when i'm at OT :D :D

Re: [Merged] Football talk
 

Does the one you sing refer to the price of a certain player who wears black and white? ;)
