cross Antarctica. Manchester United manager, Sir Alex Ferguson, has | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
announced after 26 years in charge of the most successful club in | :00:34. | :00:39. | |
England he's retiring at the end of the season. Already big names around | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
the world, including Christiano Ronaldo are reacting and reflecting | :00:43. | :00:49. | |
on what has been a remarkable reign. Sir Alex, the most successful | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
manager in the history of the British game. Manchester United | :00:52. | :00:57. | |
manager for more than 26 years. Winning an incredible 38 trophies | :00:57. | :01:05. | |
for the club, including 13 League titles, five FA Cups, four League | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
Cups and the Champions League twice. This is what he looked like back in | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
1986, arriving for his first game in charge. But the fans had to wait | :01:13. | :01:20. | |
four years for his first trophy, the 1990 FA Cup. In 1999, they became | :01:20. | :01:25. | |
the only English team to win the famous League, FA Cup and Champions | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
League treble and he still had time for clashes with some big-name | :01:29. | :01:35. | |
players off the pitch, famously getting rid of David Beckham during | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
a row. There have been five Prime Ministers, 12 England managers and | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
19 different Manchester City bosses, but he's not leaving the club | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
entirely and will become a director and ambassador. | :01:47. | :01:53. | |
Such a great career, and so much success and plenty of reactions to | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
the decision. The Prime Minister has said Ferguson's record was | :01:57. | :02:04. | |
exceptional. Michael Owen said he was the world's best manager, adding | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
Manchester United without him doesn't seem right and Christiano | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
Ronaldo, who was a player for Manchester United, tweeted, " Thanks | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
for everything, boss." I've had a season ticket for two years and it's | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
quite shocking that he's left, so I'm pretty devastated. He's been | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
ling them for so many years and he has shown how good a manager he can | :02:29. | :02:37. | |
be. I don't think he can be dept. The best in the world. -- topped. | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
The best manager in the world. is outside Old Trafford. Here we | :02:42. | :02:48. | |
are, the home of Manchester United, Old Trafford. So much talk about Sir | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
Alex Ferguson retiring. A big shock to everyone. Joining me now is | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
Catherine, BBC Sports presenter. The big question now is what happens | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
next? Well, Leah, David Moyes is looking increasingly likely to be | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
the successor. He's currently the Everton boss and he's been at | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
Goodison for 12 years and given that Sir Alex Ferguson has been here for | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
26 years, you can tell that loyalty is very important to the bosses here | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
at Old Trafford. Jose Mourinho's name was also in the frame. He used | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
to manage Chelsea. He has gone over to Real Madrid, so he has real | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
experience in managing top European football, which is what Manchester | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
United want to continue doing in the years ahead, something that perhaps | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
David Moyes hasn't had much experience in, but he's the front | :03:31. | :03:36. | |
runner when it comes to replacing Sir Alex and the club say they want | :03:36. | :03:42. | |
to make an announcement before the weekend. On Sunday, he will lead out | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
the team against Swansea at home. What happens after that and in the | :03:45. | :03:51. | |
next season is out of his hands. Back to you. Thank you | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
To the day's other news and Government has sent out its latest | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
plans for the year ahead. The Queen read them out in her annual speech | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
to mark the State Opening of Parliament. A big ceremony that like | :04:03. | :04:11. | |
the start of a new school term for politicians. Prince Charles and his | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
wife attended the ceremony for the first time in 17 years. They planned | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
to impose tough new rules from people from foreign countries coming | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
to live in the UK. The plans have to be approved by Parliament before | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
becoming the law. The Queen also said that the Government's first | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
priority would be to improve the UK's money problems. My Lords and | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
