Fergie on Stein

Alex Ferguson talks about his working experiences and friendship with the great Jock Stein.

[@askthesfa]

As a Celtic supporter, I always love to hear Alex Ferguson talk about Jock Stein. Forget the rivalry - these were two greats.

[@BeatPoet67]

This is the best interview I've ever seen with Alex Ferguson. The interviewer obviously knows his stuff, gets Fergie's trust and then it just flows. And Ferguson's memory for teams, players and formations even from the early 60s is astonishing.

I'm a Liverpool fan but as a Scot, he is easily the best manager since Jock Stein.

Still remember the night jock died. All of Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 mourned (some didn’t) a giant in the game. Winning the European Cup with a squad of all Scots was incredible.

I was young watching it with my dad who had been to both European finals. He was upset I was too young to understand. Now I do 💚🍀🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@flankspeed]

Shankly came up to Stein after the '67 final and said, "John, you're immortal." And so he is. I support both Liverpool and Rangers, and as much as I also admire Fergie, I wish we'd had Jock Stein in the dugout in Mexico. Anyone who doesn't isn't the full shilling.

“It’s a great asset that- knowing someone’s name and recognising them.” He carried that with him for the rest of his career.

[@pauldg6088]

Although I never supported Celtic as a boy, Jock Stein was still my hero. He truly made good teams great. He was a wonderful, principled character who never forgot his working class roots.

[@johnadams20132013]

Great interview by Sir Alex proud to support both Celtic and Man Utd

[@Bloxdio_God]

The importance and influence of Jock Stein must never be underestimated. When you watch and read old interviews with him, you can hear quite a bit of Sir Alex Ferguson in there.

[@arien6033]

Great man sir Alex Ferguson. Thanks for sharing.✌👍❤

[@Theagchm]

Kudos to Alex, just shows how close the old firm actually were, in terms of friendship - in spite of the hatred that the press sold. Never seen this before, really great video.

Alex will tell you Jock was the best manager. their records speaks for themselves

[@margotcappello8789]

People forget Stein was so far ahead in the game' that he won the European Cup with players that all stayed within a 30 mile radius. They were also all Scottish, and that's not being racist or anything else, it's just a fact. What a way to pass away after "Supper Cooper" put us on the way to another World Cup. The fact Graeme Souness was crying in the dressing room says it all. Legendary Manager whose mantra was without fans there wouldn't be any football. JINKY JOHNSTONE, DAVIE COOPER, TOMMY GEMMELL, SANDY JARDINE, etc,etc,etc!!! You could go on all night mentioning all the other great players that Scotland had back in the 'auld days' n that's without mentioning KING KENNY. THEY ALL IDOLIZED JOCK STEIN, May he rest in peace, as Bill Shankly said of his great friend (" JOCK, YOU ARE IMMORTAL ") W.C. in K.P. - 1968 -

[@09BowornratP]

@ShiftCtrl85 tbh jock really should have taken the utd job...if im correct he gave the then utd chairman his word that he would but ended up reneging because of personal reasons. But then we wouldn't have had fergie so.....

[@richardsharpe2966]

As a Manchester United fan I have always said this and always will Jock Stein was the greatest Manchester United manager Man Unt never had

[@noelcooper7541]

Born and raised Scottish Celt here, but my grandad was from Manchester and watched the babes when he was a young man. Scottish football has been marginalised in recent years due to tv money artificially inflating some leagues to the detriment of others. Even today I seen a comment "what's the point of Scottish football?" Stein, Busby, Shanks and Fergie. But tbh, the saddest thing for me isn't that the game is being ruined by money, but the lack of kids I see kicking a ball in the street.
