Fotbollsvärlden chockades igår, då Manchester United meddelade att Sir Alex Ferguson har opererats för en hjärnblödning. En enad fotbollsvärld har visat sitt stöd till tidernas främste manager. Här samlar vi ett axplock av reaktionerna.
Några nyheter har vi inte fått idag. Det vi vet är att Ferguson opererades på sjukhuset Salford Royal och att han nu får intensivvård där. Operationen beskrevs som lyckad.
Vi kan bara vänta. Bara hoppas och önska att han ska klara sig.
Vi tänker också tillbaka på den enastående eran då Ferguson ledde United till framgångar bortom de vildaste drömmarna. Det han uträttade borde inte ha varit möjligt. Han var, är och förblir bossen, vilket också är ett tema i väldigt många av reaktionerna.
Every single one of us loves Alex Ferguson!
Fergusons gamla klubbar
Innan det blev Manchester United (1986-2013) hade Aberdeen (1978-86), St Mirren (1974-78) och East Stirlingshire (1974) äran att få ha Alex Ferguson som manager. Han var, 1985-86, också förbundskapten för Skottland.
