Certainly not Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea or a few others that spring to mind - it's always someone elses fault (usually the ref !).

I can think of two occasions of the top of my head for Fergie.
Champions league against Porto where a valid goal was disallowed knocking Utd out Fergie didn't blame the linesman, I believe his quote was "its shocking but thats football."
Carling Cup semi final against Chelsea, despite arguments with Jose during both legs and Jose saying Utd were diving etc, fergie invited him into his office after the second leg to share a bottle of wine.
If thats not losing gracefully I don't know what is.
