🗣️ Sir Alex Ferguson on playing West Ham in 2011:

“It actually happens on a fairly regular basis. I would often twiddle things during a game or at half-time. One example that comes to mind is a game against West Ham in the closing weeks of the season in April 2011.

A few months earlier, West Ham had whipped us 4-0 in a Carling Cup tie where I had fielded a team of young players. Towards the end of that game, Wally Downes, West Ham's first-team coach, asked Wes Brown, as he waited on the sidelines to replace Jonny Evans, 'Are you going on to make a difference?'

That got right under my skin, as did the taunts from West Ham's supporters after the game, who were very aggressive towards me in the car park.

I told them, 'We're going to be back here in April and we're going to relegate you.' However, when we were 2-0 down at half-time in a match towards the end of the season, I was a long way from fulfilling my promise.
