The Football Ramble’s Guide To… the 1999...

Stak
About this episode

Close to 10 years to the day since Sir Alex Ferguson’s final game as manager of Manchester United, we had to look back at the defining game of his career. Or really, the defining two minutes of it.


Marcus Speller, Luke No-friends-at-the-pub Moore and Vithushan Wee Nipper Ehantharajah reminisce about Manchester United’s extraordinary turnaround against Bayern Munich and Ferguson’s role in it all. From the snooker with Jonathan Greening, to distracting a - erm - restless Roy Keane, and *that* iconic post-match interview. The Football Ramble, bloody hell.
