The quotes can be About Manchester, either by a fan, player or opposing team. It can also be about a Manchester player (playing now or in the past). I only have one so far, a little help would be appreciated.

Good Fergie quotes..

ALEX FERGUSON JUST AFTER UNITED WON EUROPEAN CUP
"At the end of this game, the European Cup will be only six feet away from you
and you'll not even able to touch it if we lose. And for many of you that will be
the closest you will ever get. Don't you dare come back in here without giving
your all".
ALEX FERGUSON HALF TIME TEAMTALK IN EUROPEAN CUP FINAL
"It would have been Sir Matt Busby's 90th birthday today, but I think he was up
there doing a lot of kicking."
ALEX FERGUSON POST MATCH EUROPEAN CUP FINAL
"My greatest challenge was knocking Liverpool right off their f*cking perch...and
you can print that."
FERGIE RESPONDING TO ALAN HANSEN QUESTIONING HIS FUTURE IN SEPT 2002
"Just f*cking patch him up"
FERGIE TO CLUB PHYSIO AFTER KICKING BOOT THAT CUT BECKHAM'S HEAD
"It was a freakish incident. If I tried it 100 or a million times it couldn't happen
again. If I could I would have carried on playing!"

FERGIE ON THE 2003 TITLE RACE

SIR ALEX TALKS TO JOURNALISTS ABOUT VERON
"Eriksson would have been a nice easy choice for them [the United board] in
terms of nothing really happens, does it? He doesn't change anything. He sails
along, nobody falls out with him. He comes out and he says [faking a Swedish
accent]: 'The first half we were good, second half we were not so good. I am
very pleased with the result.' I think he'd have been all right for United, you
know what I mean? The acceptable face.".
FERGIE ON SVEN GORAN ERIKSSON
"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."
ALEX FERGUSON ON GARY NEVILLE, 1996
"When an Italian tells me its pasta on the plate I check under the sauce to make
sure"
ALEX FERGUSON BEFORE UNITED PLAYED INTER MILAN IN MARCH 1999
"Whether Dribbling or sprinting, Ryan can leave the best defenders with twisted
blood"
FERGUSON ON RYAN GIGGS
"Cole should be scoring from those distances, but I'm not going to single him out."
ALEX FERGUSON ON ANDY COLE
"He goes to more funerals than anybody I have ever met."
KEN RAMSDEN, IN ‘UNITED WE STAND’, ON SIR ALEX.
"Sir Alex has got such a stern exterior but behind the scenes he is almost this
huge, larger-than-life comedian. He’s always singing at the top of his voice."

"Resting in Interlaken, Germany was one thing and facing Old Trafford another. When I approached the ground and moved over the bridge along which our supporters had squeezed fifty abreast in there tens of thousands to shout for us I could scarcely bear to look. I new the ghosts of the babes would still be there, and there they are still, and they will always be there as long as those who saw them still cross the bridge, young, gay, red ghosts on the green grass of Old Trafford."
---- SIR MATT BUSBY
