00:01What do you remember about Saturday, 5th of May, 2018?
00:06Ambulance service.
00:07My dad, he's a clown.
00:09The greatest British manager ever!
00:12What's his name, please?
00:14Alexander Ferguson.
00:16I was crying, you know, because I don't remember a thing.
00:20He just put his head in his hands and went,
00:21I hope there's nothing on my memory.
00:23The champions of England!
00:27There'd better be nothing on my memory.
00:30And then he'd just start telling me these stories.
00:32It's a fact of life that where we come from is important.
00:36I come from gumming. I'm a gumming boy.
00:38My apprenticeship as a toolmaker helped me, I think, in understanding people.
00:43In Glasgow, the Rangers and Celtic,
00:45people had the knife in Alec for obvious reasons.
00:49Cathy was Catholic.
00:50I went off the rails a bit.
00:52My dad, that's when we fell out.
00:54I've always regretted it.
00:56But the football was the saviour.
00:58He was determined that he would go on and prove himself.
01:01I had my own philosophy about management.
01:03And the team have won.
01:05A player can't do it himself.
01:06A player's the only part of a team.
01:09The manager's in control of that.
01:11The camera shutters strained at the first appearance of the new boss.
01:14Manchester United have won nothing since 85.
01:16I just said, Dad, I don't think you're going to be successful.
01:19Adversity, when it happened.
01:21Cathy, she sacrificed to support me 100%.
01:23I've got a patience, 53 years married to me.
01:27You've got this reputation as this fearsome character.
01:30Absolutely.
01:31He would be right in your face, screaming at you.
01:34But it was definitely that father-son relationship.
01:37He knew exactly what I needed.
01:39It's why I walk so hard.
01:41Captain, ah!
01:42If you want to be the proper manager,
01:44you have to know them all, all these different stories.
01:47This is the place where they've created gods.
01:59Psychology is someone else's work.
02:04I call it management.
02:07The impossible dream made possible.
02:11You worry, you'll lose all this history,
02:15all these memories.
02:17But they live on.
