The greatest Scot was a television programme that presented the different views with different categories with different people to choose from for the prestigious title. The different categories were; sport, inventors and entrepreneurs, leaders and thinkers, arts and entertainment, scientists and engineers and brains, with big names in there like Sean Connery, William Wallace and Jock Stein, but the person which I believe deserves the coveted status is Sir Alex Ferguson. I highly doubt that even one person in the world who has never heard his name. That in its self is just one reason which makes him a perfect fit, for The Greatest Scot.
Alex Ferguson has been at a few clubs. He started his managerial career at East Stirlingshire, …show more content…
It was 1988 the year he joined. He has been there for 22 years now and is still doing a fantastic job. In his time at United, He has won 34 trophies. 11 English Premier League Titles, 8 Charity/community Shields, 5 English F.A. Cups, 4 English League Cups, 2 European Cups, 1 European Cup Winners Cup 1 European Super Cup, 1 Intercontintal cup, 1 Fifa club World Cup. That averages out at over 1 trophy a season.

For example; Wayne Rooney, a young 18 year old who was a trivial player at Everton. Alex brought him to United and now Rooney is one of the best strikers in the world. Cristiano Ronaldo is another; he was bought from a Portuguese club called sporting Lisbon, for a pretty big sum of £10 million! Six years after being bought He was voted World Player of the year. The same year Spanish giants Real Madrid paid United £80 million for him; it broke the transfer record by £20 million. Sir Alex, using Rooney and Ronaldo as examples has lead young footballers to keep it up and they could someday be like Rooney and Ronaldo.
Sir Alex has turned two reasonable clubs into amazing league winning sides, Aberdeen and Manchester United. They were both mid-table clubs when he took over and he transformed them into great teams. Any team would be lucky to have such a manager as Sir Alex.
It is a fact that Ferguson is the most successful manager ever, not just in Britain but in the World! All together He has won 45 different trophies with only 3 clubs. That is worthy of another trophy in its self. He is the best manager to ever live and He is still living. Best manager ever, He has to be the Greatest Scot.
