preview

SIR ALEX FERGUSON’s wife Cathy initially thought he looked like a “thug” but later became his “stone”.Cathy sadly passed away on Thursday morning at the age of 84.Her family confirmed the tragic news in an emotional statement.Ferguson was married to Cathy for almost 60 years and the couple also had three sons together – Mark, Darren and Jason.She was described by Ferguson as his “cornerstone” during their marriage.However, Cathy once revealed that she originally thought he looked like a “thug” when they first met.Appearing in the 2021 documentary Sir Alex Ferguson: Never Give In, she explained: “I just saw him walk through and I thought he was a thug.”“Then I found out he was a footballer and that didn’t make him any different than me.”“He bought me a box of licorice Allsorts at the cinema, which he ate all of, and a local newspaper when we came out. That was my romantic day.”“We got married in Glasgow registry office in 1966 and that was the beginning. I went to my work and he went to his football.”The couple had a very strong bond throughout their marriage, which Ferguson also showed during the documentary.He recalled wanting to tell the Rangers to “fuck off” when they questioned him about Cathy’s religion when they signed with them in 1967.“Glasgow is a city where there is a divide,” he explained. “It’s Protestant and Catholic, Rangers and Celtic.“I heard that the Rangers wanted to sign me and, having supported the Rangers as a boy and living 200 meters above the ground, I was obviously pretty excited about it.”“He says, ‘I have to ask you a question about your wife. I think she’s Catholic. Did you get married in a chapel?’. I said, ‘No, we got married in the registry office,’ and he said, ‘Oh, that’s fine.’ I should have told him to fuck off.“I really should have done that, but having supported Rangers as a boy and having the opportunity to play for Rangers, I’m prepared to put up with nonsense.”“I let myself down there and I let my wife down – that was the most important thing – because she was a devout Catholic.”During her husband’s legendary tenure as manager, Cathy also played a key role in Manchester United’s success.Without their intervention, the Red Devils might have won fewer titles this century.She convinced him to stay in management back in 2002 and advised him to come out of retirement.Under the Scot, United won five more league titles before he finally ended his coaching career in 2013.
