Who will you like to replace him when he retired? I would love Jose Mourinho. But I'm afraid Man Utd will become the most hated team in the world!

If you want Mourinho, you're hardly a die-hard United fan. Hell, you might as well take Rafa. How about that lovely Man City boss too?
Roy Keane. No doubt to the despair of Sunderland supports.

Yes you right. I should not have suggested Mourinho. :) The problem is I don't see anyone else who can do better job than him. I admire the way he manage Chelsea. I guarantee you NO one else could do what he had done at Chelsea. Of course Chelsea had the sugar daddy that provide all the money. Yet it will take a truly genius to unite the team in the very first season. You just have no idea how hard was that!! I don't like Rafa style of play. I don't want Man Utd to become Liverpool!
Though I think there is someone who can continue Fergie's works at Man Utd. Yes you right again. His name is Roy Keane. Fergie should stay for another 2 years to let Keane further his experience at Sunderland. Then after Fergie retired, Keane will be back to OT but now as a manager.
It's a perfect plan.

Oh I know what you mean, you was logical in your choice, it just doesn't fit emotionally ;-) I know Jose is a good manager, his time before Chelsea has proved that, though I think his time at Chelsea has diminished his reputation in all honesty.
I hope Roy's managerial career continues well, I think most do, non-United fans included, done a great job at Sunderland, though I don't think Fergie will be retiring for a long time!
Bolton's Sam Aladace(sp?) has nothing planned for the summer :P

I actually think that Alex Ferguson will retire after next season and wouldn't be at all surprised if Sam Allardyce, who just resigned from the Bolton job, took over. I think it would be a very good move as big Sam did an incredible job at Bolton in a very small market and with a very limited budget.
