Alex Ferguson retires: 49 trophies for most successful British boss

 
8 May 2013

Following Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement announcement, the Manchester United boss will stand down having won 49 trophies in the most successful managerial career Britain has ever known.

Spanning almost four decades, from humble origins at St Mirren, it is hard to imagine anyone getting close to the records Ferguson has set.
