Sir Alex Ferguson’s last chewed gum sold for $640,000

Someone at The Hawthorns on Sunday supposedly recovered Sir Alex Ferguson’s last ever piece of gum chewed as Manchester United manager. Of course, it quickly found its way onto ebay, where the gum sold overnight for nearly $640,000. 
We’re a little disturbed by how many people fought over this piece of dry, yet saliva-infused, memorabilia, nor can we even be sure of its authenticity. But apparently all proceeds go to charity, so that’s nice.

The listing read as follows:
Used chewing gum: RARE. Recovered from The Hawthorns. Clear perspex/wooden case.
Unofficial merchandise, rumoured to belong to Sir Alex.
After 1,500 games of intense chewing as manager of Man Utd, here lies Fegie’s last piece of chewing gum.

All proceeds go to the MU Foundation charity.

Trophy Lift



Sir Alex Ferguson and his Manchester United team got their hands on the Barclays Premier League trophy at an emotionally charged Old Trafford on Sunday and you can watch the video of the presentation here on ManUtd.com.
The Reds, of course, clinched the title last month but the players finally got their hands on the silverware following what was Sir Alex's final home match, four days after he announced his intention to retire at the end of the season.
United's 20th league title, and 13th Premier League crown, will forever be remembered as Sir Alex's last, and our video of the presentation captures all the emotion of the occasion.

Farewell Sir Alex Ferguson

Robin: It's been an honour

Robin van Persie admitted it has been an honour to have played alongside Paul Scholes and worked under the management of Sir Alex Ferguson.
The pair said farewell to Old Trafford on the day that the midfielder and manager picked up medals for the club’s 20th league title – in doing so picking up their 11th and 13th titles respectively.
Having picked up his very first league winner's medal, van Persie paid tribute to the departing duo, saying of Scholes: “He's unbelievable. Scholesy and Giggsy as well.
“It's like when I first came to England and I saw things which I'd never seen before from players like Bergkamp, Henry and Pires, and now since I came here I had that feeling again.
“Since day one I've seen him, the things Scholesy does are just unbelievable, things that I've never seen in my life. It was an honour to play with him.”
After Sir Alex’s 1,499th game in charge of the club ended in victory, van Persie admitted he will cherish his fleeting stint under one of history's greats.
“He's a great manager, maybe the best ever,” said the Dutchman. “Although I've only been working under him for one year, it feels a lot more.
“The impact he's made on me, and the impact he made on this club for 26 and a half years, is incredible. It's an honour for me to be able to say when I'm older that I've been working with him. It's one year but it feels more and it's just a big honour for me to work with him.”
While neither Scholes nor Sir Alex will feature in the Reds’ bid to retain the title and emboss it with further silverware next term, Robin is eagerly anticipating the assault on 2013/14 under new manager David Moyes.
“That's what this club is about; we always bounce back,” he said. “Even this year we came from behind many times and I think only three occasions we didn’t come back, so this club is about comebacks.
“This club will always be here and this club will always fight for trophies.”
Robin was speaking to Sky Sports.

Giggs' tribute to the boss

Ryan Giggs has paid a personal tribute to Sir Alex Ferguson during an exclusive interview with MUTV.

The veteran midfielder came off the bench in the victory against Swansea in the manager's final home game in charge and was clearly emotional afterwards, even if he is already looking forward to playing under only his second domestic boss in David Moyes next term.

"Obviously it's been an emotional day," said Giggs. "He's been such a massive part of my life. I met him when I was 13 to what I am now, 39, so it's a long time. Yes, it's an emotional day.

"Not only for my career [has he been such an influence] but for my life. He has been a massive part of my life. He's seen me from a boy to a man and seen me grow. I've seen him mature over the years from the manager I knew when I was younger. He has done everything for me both on and off the pitch."

It was vital for Giggs that United conjured up a late winner to pick up victory and provide a fitting tribute for Sir Alex.

"He said in his pre-match talk that he wanted to make sure we didn't play the occasion but played the game," added the Welshman. "And made sure we did what we've been doing all season, which is winning games.

"I mean it probably summed up the time that he's managed as we've had so many important late goals. He probably didn't expect Rio [Ferdinand] to come up with what was a great finish but it was a fitting end to what was a brilliant career at Old Trafford."

The prospect of working under Moyes thrills Giggs, who recently signed another one-year contract extension to prolong his remarkable career with the Reds.

"Obviously, it's exciting times," he stated. "Next season will be exciting times. David Moyes has obviously been brilliant over the last 10 years for Everton and hopefully he'll carry on that good work here at United."

Today at Old Trafford



Tuesday 21 May
18:41 Some recommended reading for this evening... a reflective blog on last night's success for United's Under-21s and its wider context, penned by Adam Marshall. "The steady progress of developing youngsters does not make a good story in the media but it is the ethos that Sir Matt Busby's success was founded upon and the mantle was taken up with gusto by Sir Alex Ferguson." Etc. (AB)

16:00 In the video player above you can watch highlights of United's Champions League triumph on this day in 2008. Enjoy! (BH)

12:30 Tom Cleverley is a doubt for England's friendlies against Republic of Ireland and Brazil, hence the call-up for Manchester City's Jack Rodwell to Roy Hodgson's squad. (AM)


11:23 You can now cast your vote for our final Player of the Month of the season. We have four candidates - Jonny Evans, Phil Jones, Shinji Kagawa and Javier Hernandez. (AM)


10:56 It was great to see the young lads getting their hands on silverware last night. Five years ago today the first-team lifted the Champions League trophy after an epic shoot-out win over Chelsea in final in Moscow's Luzhniki Stadium. I remember being sat near Jonny Evans and Darron Gibson in the stand behind the goal, and when Edwin van der Sar saved Nicholas Anelka's penalty they both went absolutely mental and were jumping around hugging fans. Few will forget that rain-soaked night in Russia's capital. (BH)

10:15 The 3-2 win against Spurs in the Barclays Under-21 Premier League final will be screened again by MUTV at 10.30 BST for those that missed the excitement. Highlights are also being shown at 19.30 BST after the Paddy Crerand Show tonight. (AM)

09:50 Well, it was a privilege to watch the Under-21s come from behind to win the trophy last night at Old Trafford. Man-of-the-match Larnell Cole now has six goals from his four games at the Theatre of Dreams this term while the opportunity is there for a second successive sweep at this level if the Reds can overcome Manchester City in the Lancashire Senior Cup final, which doesn't take place until the start of next season. (AM)

Monday 20 May
22:25 Warren Joyce paid tribute to his title winners, telling MUTV (when the interview resumed, post-soaking): "They've shown a lot of character. They can take criticism, they can come back and dig themselves out of holes. That's what you're looking for in a Manchester United player." (AB)

22:20 You can now watch two celebratory videos on this page - Tom Thorpe lifting the league trophy as captain of United Under-21s and Warren Joyce getting soaked by his players midway through his post-match interview with MUTV's Mark Sullivan. Great fun. (Adam Bostock)

20:56 Champions! United win a cracking final 3-2 - Larnell Cole scoring twice and Marnick Vermijl netting the other goal to set the Reds on the way to a remarkable comeback against Tottenham. Spurs may have won the two group stages but, when it comes down to getting hold of the silverware, once again Warren Joyce's side have come up trumps. You can read my match report here. (AM)

20:47 Sensational stuff! Warren Joyce's sides never know when they are beaten! Cole finds the net again from a Tom Lawrence pass and United, incredibly, lead 3-2 with a couple of minutes left. (AM)

20:34 It's 2-2! Larnell Cole slams in the equaliser after a great break by Jesse Lingard and Januzaj. Obika has just missed a glorious chance to restore the lead. Remember extra-time and penalties will be played if required. (AM)

20:20 United are back in it thanks to Marnick Vermijl. The Belgian defender overhit a cross from the right wing but, the next time he was picked out by Ryan Tunnicliffe, he rasped a fine finish past Jordan Archer. 2-1 to Spurs. (AM)

19:48 It's half time and United trail 2-0 to a powerful Spurs outfit. Let's hope the Reds can make a fight of it in the second half. (AM)

19:43 Alex Pritchard has doubled Tottenham's advantage a few minutes before half time. A low shot gave Amos no chance and the Reds really are facing an uphill struggle now. (AM)

19:30 Spurs lead and it's been coming - Obika breaks the deadlock from close range. The muscular striker made an aggressive challenge on Ben Amos and Alex Pritchard headed the ball back into his path to touch in. (AM)

19:25 It's 0-0 at Old Trafford but Spurs have twice come mightily close to opening the scoring. Jonathan Obika, who hit a hat-trick against the Reds earlier in the season, and Harry Kane have both struck the woodwork. (AM)

19:15 United started brightly with Januzaj looking sprightly in a lone striking role but Spurs are starting to dictate the play. It's still goalless and the only noteworthy attempt on goal was a Tom Carroll shot over the bar. (AM)

18:59 The teams are on the pitch and kick-off is not far away - we'll update you on here with any goals and noteworthy action. Remember the game is live on MUTV. (AM)

18:45 Right, so the team is confirmed as: Amos; Vermijl, Thorpe, M.Keane, James; Cole, Ekangamene, Pearson, Tunnicliffe, Januzaj; Lingard. Subs: Grimshaw, Sutherland, Lawrence, A.Pereira, Wilson. (AM)

18:35 There is a change to the teamsheet as Ben Pearson starts in midfield ahead of Tom Lawrence, which means either Jesse Lingard or Adnan Januzaj will be charged with leading the attack. (AM)

18:12 Here's the United line-up for tonight's Barclays Under-21 Premier League final, as per the teamsheet now in circulation: Amos; Vermijl, Thorpe, M.Keane, James; Cole, Ekangamene, Tunnicliffe, Januzaj, Lingard; Lawrence. Subs: Sutherland, Wilson, A. Pereira, Grimshaw, Pearson. Kick-off is at 19:00 BST. (AB)

16:58 Robin van Persie's effort at West Brom on Sunday means he is only the third United player to reach 30 goals in his debut season at the club. The other two are Ruud van Nistelrooy and Brian McClair. Of course, the Dutchman has won the Golden Boot after topping the Barclays Premier League scoring charts with 26 goals, three ahead of nearest rival Luis Suarez. (AM)

15:15 I've just had a chat with X Factor star Amelia Lily who is performing at the Red Heart United legends game next month in aid of the Manchester United Foundation. The Middlesbrough-born singer, who comes from a family of Newcastle fans, is relishing the chance to perform at the Theatre of Dreams and is predicting a close contest between United and Real Madrid. Read the full interview with Amelia in the Red Heart United matchday programme - order your tickets for the game here. (GT)

12:22 What an occasion yesterday turned out to be. The crazy match with West Brom was the first ever 5-5 draw under the name Manchester United – the other occasion in the club's long history was when Newton Heath shared that scoreline with Lincoln City at Bank Street on 16 November 1895. It’s also the eighth time United (or the Heathens) have been involved in a ten-goal thriller, and the 13th occasion we’ve taken part in a match with 10 or more goals. But in Sir Alex's era, the only other time we've been involved in a ten-goal thriller (as we are duty bound to always describe them) in the Barclays Premier League was the frankly improbable 8-2 victory over Arsenal in August 2011. (IM)

11:45 I loved how Rio and Giggsy ordered the boss to go closer to the fans and say his farewells at the final whistle yesterday. You could tell he was quite emotional at the end and was just happy not to have a big fuss, but it was nice that the players made him go over to his adoring public. You can watch the moment on the 'Sir Alex serenade' video above. Still doesn't feel real that he's gone. (GT)

11:00 Good morning from Old Trafford. What a day it was yesterday...nothing like signing off as Manchester United manager with a 5-5 draw! After 1,500 games in charge of the Reds, Sir Alex Ferguson finally bid farewell at just before 18:00 on Sunday evening. Although the Scot didn't speak to the press after the game, he told reporters in passing that it had been a "very emotional" day. You can relive some of the day's emotional moments again by watching the videos in our menu on the right above. (GT)

Parade day at Old Trafford

Monday 13 May
21:00 That's all for this special trophy-parade edition of Today at Old Trafford, so thanks for following the events here and via our live video stream courtesy of MUTV. It's been another amazing day in Manchester, and I hope we've helped you, wherever you are in the world, to share in the atmosphere and emotions on the city's streets. Over and out for now... (AB)

20:49 Paul Scholes believes this epic trophy parade has provided the perfect send-off for fellow retiree Sir Alex, who he believes was the star attraction today. Also, when asked if such glorious scenes might change his mind about retirement, the Reds legend was typically blunt in his response: “No, I know it is the right time... But this is brilliant and is a great way to go. You can’t ask for any more than winning the league.” You can read more from Scholesy here. (MF)

20:27 Sir Alex has just spoken to the fans from the stage in Albert Square, where the parade has ended in a sea of colour and noise. "I thought that '99 could not be beaten but you've beaten it today. Absolutely fantastic, all of you. Thank you for your fantastic support. We're proud of you. And the players, a magnificent bunch of lads. I hope we're all here to witness this many times again. Well done, good luck." (AB)

20:06 Robin van Persie clearly feels his first parade as a title winner was well worth the wait. He told Helen McConnell: "Everyone is so happy, it's just incredible. The medal hasn't left my neck since yesterday, it's been here all night. The trophy's a heavy trophy and it's great to win it finally. This trophy is for the fans, the players, the staff... the one thing I really like is it's made so many people so happy. You see kids, babies, women, men, all sorts of people are so happy and I'm very pleased to see that." (AB)

20:01 MUTV's Helen McConnell has just interviewed Sir Alex, who was loving the atmosphere and drew comparisons with the 1999 treble parade when Deansgate was absolutely packed. You'll be able to read his full comments soon. (MF)

19:59 The bus is currently motoring down Deansgate and is about to pull into Albert Square, where The Courteeners are currently performing to thousands of United fans. (MF)

19:57 Tom Cleverley is the latest title-winner to give his thoughts to MUTV and the Reds midfielder is loving every minute of the parade: “It is one of the best feelings ever, this is what you work for as a player and it feels unbelievable to have the trophy in my hands. I have been at the club for a long time now and I know it is all about winning things, so to be part of that is massive for me so I am buzzing.” (MF)

19:47 We’ve got reaction from Phil Jones, who’s seemingly in dream land: “It’s a special day for me, it’s my first parade and hopefully it’s the first of many. I am going to enjoy this summer massively, this is what you dream of and we are going to enjoy it in the right way. Yesterday was an incredible day for me and my family, and it is something I will never forget.” (MF)

19:42 Helen McConnell has interviewed Jonny Evans on the bus, who said: “I thought everybody was going to bring their medals? I brought mine to show the fans. It is great. Obviously, we had a parade a couple of years ago and it’s good to see them turn out again. When you win a trophy, it is always a great season and you have to enjoy occasions like this. But I don’t think it is any different to any other season. Being successful and winning trophies is what it’s all about.” (MF)

19:20 Carrick has also been on camera giving his reaction to this incredible parade: “It is unbelievable. I have been getting carried away and I’ve nearly fallen off about three times. The turnout is just amazing; the whole weekend has been special after a strange week. This weekend has been unbelievable. Obviously, we are celebrating winning the league but with Scholesy and the manager retiring, it is a fitting send-off for two special people.” (MF)

19:15 As Adam said, Giggsy has been interviewed and this is what he had to say: “Today is just brilliant. Obviously, it gives us a chance to share our great achievement with the fans and they have turned out in their thousands - it’s an amazing atmosphere... There have been mixed emotions with the news that the manager is leaving. It has been hard, it has been tough, especially for the players who have known him for a long time, but I am happy and delighted that we could end the season on a high by winning the league in his last season.” (MF)

19:00 Ryan Giggs, Michael Carrick and Mike Phelan have already spoken to MUTV's Helen McConnell on the moving bus, and now it's the turn of Jonny Evans and Phil Jones. Expect quotes from them all on ManUtd.com in due course. (AB)

18:44 The bus has now left Old Trafford and is currently cruising down Chester Road en route to Deansgate and eventually Albert Square, driving past thousands of fans who have lined the streets of Manchester. The players, wearing various items of club merchandise, are filming the journey on personal cameras and taking in every second. (MF)

18:39 Here's what Sir Alex had to say, in a short but sweet speech to the jubilant crowd here at the stadium (AB):
"I'm more pleased for you than anything else. To go through a thirty-eight game league programme and win it in style with a great bunch of players. It's a young squad, a lot of good young players. They're going to get better, a lot of them, and the big test is can they win it three times in a row as we've done before? I hope the boys can do that. "Yesterday was a day I'll never forget, I thank you for that. All my family will never forget it. For my 11 grandchildren, it will live in their memory for many many years. We're setting off on the bus tour now so on behalf of all the players thanks for your support.  "One more thing before we go - tomorrow night our Under 21s play Liverpool, that mob from across the road. I hope some of you come and cheer the young lads on, it would be good of you. Thank you. All the best."

18:36 The moment we have all been waiting for has arrived - Sir Alex’s first appearance on the bus! The manager looks happy and relaxed, waving to supporters and posing for pictures with the Premier League trophy. He is now about to address everybody on the Old Trafford forecourt... (MF)

18:32 Earlier on, Alan Keegan managed to grab a word with Ferdinand and this is what he said: "I don't get many but it was a great time to score a goal. It was the right way for the manager to go out at Old Trafford, getting a win and scoring late in the game, it's what he's done throughout his career as Manchester United manager. It was the right way for him to go. The fans are brilliant. Look at the streets now, they're packed. It was raining earlier but everyone still came out. This is a great club with great fans. We need your support all the time and long may it continue." (MF)

18:30 Rio is back on the microphone, this time performing an excitable version of Michael Carrick’s crowd-pleasing chant based on Pilot’s iconic track ‘Magic’. His rendition, which was admirable but understandably low in quality, was thankfully bettered by the fans. (MF)

18:23 An exuberant Phil Jones is next on the microphone, explaining why this season has been so special for him: “It is incredible to see all of these fans out here today. To win my first title after what happened last season has been incredible and the fans have been brilliant.” Anders Lindegaard was next up and the Danish goalkeeper was at a loss for words, but expressed his delight to be playing for “the best club in the world.” (MF)

18:20 Chris Smalling is the latest player to board the bus and be interviewed by Alan Keegan, who asked the defender what it feels like to win his first title: “It’s a great feeling that will always stick with me and one that I will cherish,” he said. (MF)

18:15 Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand are next aboard the bus, both of whom received a great ovation from the crowd, quickly followed by Jonny Evans, Rafael, Shinji Kagawa and Tom Cleverley. All six raised the trophy individually before posing for official club photographer John Peters to take their picture. (MF)

18:09 Nemanja Vidic and Patrice Evra have just appeared with the Barclays Premier League trophy, triumphantly carrying it onto the bus to great cheers from the crowd. They’ve walked straight up the stairs to the top deck, showing off the championship crown in all its glory. (MF)

18:04 The bus is stationed on the forecourt and we’re awaiting the arrival of the players, staff and perhaps most importantly, the manager. Chants of “Champions, champions, champions” are sounding as stadium announcer Alan Keegan hypes the crowd. (MF)

17:48 Mark Sullivan is stationed on Deansgate, where he’ll report on the bus when it arrives at about 19:15. At the minute, he’s waiting with ex-Red Arthur Albiston, who knows exactly what it feels like to parade a trophy around the city. “It was fantastic," Arthur recalled. "These are the memories that stick with you, it is great fun and you never get fed up of doing. And it fantastic for all of the fans who come out - especially the young kids.” (MF)

17:44 As Adam mentioned, our MUTV colleague David Stowell is well-positioned on the forecourt with Sammy McIlroy, who is anticipating a special night for Sir Alex’s men. “There’s an unbelievable atmosphere,” he said. “The noise when the players arrive is going to be breathtaking.” (MF)

17:40 The parade may be 20 minutes away from starting but you can watch MUTV's live coverage now on ManUtd.com, for free, by clicking the link above or clicking here. Reds legends Paddy Crerand and Lou Macari have joined presenter Stewart Gardner in the studio, while another United great, Sammy McIlroy, is with David Stowell on the busy forecourt where the sun has come out... phew. (AB)

17:35 We’re just half an hour away from kick-off - for want of a better phrase - and the atmosphere outside is buzzing. Thankfully, the weather has even brightened up a bit, which might encourage even more people to line the streets this evening. Those fans coming to the stadium will also receive a specially-printed flyer with simple, yet effective, ‘#ThankyouSirAlex’ message. (MF)

16:39 I’ve just arrived at Old Trafford to cover the parade and, predictably, the weather in M16 is absolutely dreadful. We’ve had glorious sunshine, rain, thunder, lightning and even hailstone – all in the last hour! However, that hasn’t stopped the thousands of United fans who have already lined the streets, waiting for a first glimpse of the trophy. It should be a celebratory, if not slightly wet, evening for all. (MF)

16:35 A quick reminder as everybody gears up to the very special parade that there is another opportunity to head to Old Trafford tomorrow as well. Warren Joyce's youngsters take on Liverpool in the semi-finals of the Barclays Under-21 Premier League with kick-off at 7pm. Ticket details are available here. (AM)

16:29 The earlier hundreds-strong throng of fans will soon be joined by thousands of fellow Reds lining the parade route, I'm sure. But if you really can't get here to join them - if you're in the region, there's still time - then be sure to watch our live video stream from 17:30 BST. (AB)

15:50 Hats off (or should that be waterproof hats on?) to the hundreds of early-bird United fans who braved the hail and thunder storms to get a front-row position on the parade route, down below our office window. I'm sure they'll be rewarded with a fantastic view when the 'send-off' event starts here at 18:00. (AB)

14:44 We can exclusively reveal pictures of United's Champions 2013 victory parade bus. View it here. (BH)

14:20 Make sure you stay tuned to this Today at Old Trafford blog throughout the afternoon for the latest videos and text updates from the parade. (BH)

14:07 It's already getting quite busy at Old Trafford with fans turning up early to get the best spots to see the parade. I saw one woman selling helium balloons in the shape of the league trophy nearly getting blown away, and Sir Matt Busby Way is already a hive of activity with fans donning shirts and scarves and waving flags in anticipation of seeing Sir Alex and United's first-team show off the Barclays Premier League trophy. (BH)

14:04 Check out all the latest parade information and route map in the links above. (BH)

13:03 The sun is shining at the moment at OT - hopefully the weather holds out for those
attending the parade later today. For those watching our live stream on ManUtd.com or live on MUTV, of course, you don't need to worry about Manchester's temperamental climate! (BH)

12:09 ManUtd.com and MUTV are the places to be today to get all the best, behind-the-scenes access to United's trophy parade. The club's official TV channel will have a reporter on the bus speaking to the players and club staff involved. You can get all that exclusive access by tuning in to MUTV or watching our live stream right here on ManUtd.com. (BH) 

11:30 Jonny Evans was on the bench against Swansea on Sunday and it gave him further insight into Sir Alex's way of thinking. "When Rio scored, everyone was delighted for him and laughing because when you look at the clock you're thinking, 'It's just typical Alex Ferguson'. I was sitting in front of the boss on the bench and I could hear him talking to Rene about substitutions and he's just got a great eye for detail, and for bringing the right players on at the right time." (BH)


11:23 There was sadness as well as celebrations at OT yesterday according to Jonny Evans, who is preparing to join the rest of the squad in parading the trophy around Manchester later today. "It was great to lift the trophy but with the occasion of the boss's last home game, it was an emotional day. I've been a United fan all my life and haven't known any other manager to be at the club. I got emotional when Gary Neville left the club, so you can imagine what it was like for quite a few of us [when the manager says he's leaving]. It's great that he had his moment as well. He was able to speak to the fans and I think there were tears in a couple of the lads' eyes." (BH)

11:00 The parade is due to start at 18:30 BST (if you're coming along, all the information you need is here), and ManUtd.com will also be streaming the whole event live from 17:30 BST. For now, why not have another look at yesterday's trophy lift and our behind the scenes video of the team's dressing room celebrations in our video menu list above. (BH)

10:34 A very good morning to you! There were no doubt a few sore heads this morning after last night's celebrations on an emotional day at Old Trafford. We've used that word - emotional - a lot these past few days, but the celebrations and teary-eyed moments aren't over yet as Sir Alex and his players take the Barclays Premier League trophy on a parade around Manchester later today - and we'll be there to cover events with pictures, videos and text updates in this live blod. Stay tuned. (Ben Hibbs)

Jakarta Party a Success #IAMUNITED


On 3 November, Manchester United held the second in the series of #IAMUNITED fan parties in Jakarta, Indonesia.
The event, which took place at the Epiwalk at Rasuna Epicentrum in the capital, attracted 7,500 fans to watch the live screening of the Barclays Premier League fixture between United and Arsenal.
Supporters flocked to the event from all regions of Indonesia and nearby Malaysia, with some even travelling from as far away as Borneo and Kuala Lumpur to be part of the event. One loyal Indonesian fan had even journeyed 10 hours by train overnight from Yogyakarta to Jakarta just to catch a glimpse of Reds legend Andrew Cole.
Fans began to arrive at the venue as early as 15:00 local time, more than four hours ahead of kick-off, quickly filling all spaces available and beginning to chant the familiar songs of Old Trafford against the backdrop of the various Indonesian supporters’ clubs’ flags.
With the venue filled to capacity and songs echoing from wall to wall, Treble-winning striker Cole was met by rapturous applause and cheers by the thousands in attendance, before beginning proceedings by promoting a Twitter-based competition for fans to have the chance of winning signed United items.
Before kick-off, the crowd were treated to live-link interviews from Old Trafford with ex-Reds Denis Irwin and Gary Pallister, and exclusive interviews with manager Sir Alex Ferguson and current stars Ashley Young and Antonio Valencia.
The huge crowd were then engrossed in the game against Arsenal, and the final whistle was met with euphoric roars as the Reds ran out 2-1 winners.
At the end of the match, Cole appeared on stage for the final time to award signed items to prize-draw winners and the lucky few in attendance whose tweets had been selected and broadcast live from Old Trafford at half-time.
Fans were still at the venue long after the final whistle, singing songs and enjoying the atmosphere of the event. "Watching it together with all the fans, it felt like Old Trafford in the Stretford End," said Gerry Herwanto, 29. "It was amazing, such an atmosphere, you had to be there to see it."

Robin Van Persie

All United fans will remember where they were when news broke that a deal had been agreed with Arsenal to bring Robin van Persie to Old Trafford and he put pen-to-paper on Friday 17 August.
Van Persie is the reigning PFA Player of the Year and the Football Writers' Footballer of the Year after a fabulous season with the Gunners.
The Dutchman was top scorer in the Barclays Premier League with 30 goals, three ahead of his nearest challenger, Wayne Rooney, who looks set to line up alongside him when the 2012/2013 campaign kicks off.
Born in Rotterdam, he really made his mark at local side Feyenoord and was chased by some of England's top clubs after a couple of seasons impressing on the left wing. Despite rumoured interest from Tottenham, Arsenal snapped him up for £2.75million in 2004 and he soon proved value for money.
After overcoming injury problems, he became the main man at Arsenal, playing centrally and becoming a major influence on the Gunners' play. Taking over the captaincy, he was the driving force for Arsene Wenger's side and was clearly one of the best players of 2011/2012 with many pundits arguing he dragged the North Londoners into the top three by leading from the front.
"The intelligence of his movement around the box and the accuracy of his finishing is exceptional," commented Wenger after his skipper hit a sensational hat-trick in a 5-3 win at Chelsea in October, 2011. "He is on fire."
Van Persie scored in both matches against United, albeit in defeat on each occasion, and confirmed his status as a world-class striker with a string of outstanding displays and matchwinning contributions. A set-piece specialist who possesses a fearsome shot, he also shows an unselfish streak by providing a number of assists for his team-mates.
In terms of international football, he scored in Holland's defeat to Germany during a disappointing overall Euro 2012 campaign for the Netherlands and starred at the 2006 and 2010 World Cup finals and also at Euro 2008.
Fellow countryman Dennis Bergkamp, who was also idolised at Arsenal, paid his special tribute to an outstanding talent. "He can make the difference time after time and, in my opinion, that describes a great player," said Bergkamp. "It’s incredible how he has developed himself and players like that deserve trophies. His character and style of play is fantastic."
As well as playing in the 2010 World Cup final, when Holland were beaten by Spain, he also lifted the 2002 UEFA Cup with Feyneoord after a 3-2 win against Borussia Dortmund, and won the FA Cup three years later when the Gunners defeated United on penalties in Cardiff. He came off the bench and successfully converted one of the spot-kicks past Roy Carroll but, aside from a Community Shield, it remained the only team silverware he won with Arsenal.
Hopefully, team glory will accompany personal accolades for van Persie at Old Trafford,as he provides another mouthwatering option for Sir Alex Ferguson in attack.
"It’s an honour to sign for Manchester United," he admitted when signing on the dotted line. "I am looking forward to following in the footsteps of so many great strikers, bringing my experience and playing my part to help the team compete for the biggest trophies in the game. I can’t wait to get started."

Waynee Rooney

Wayne Rooney burst onto the Old Trafford stage in September 2004, netting an unforgettable hat-trick against Fenerbahce on his debut.
Perhaps his performance wasn't that surprising, given the enormous pedigree he had amassed since making a lasting impression on now-Academy manager Paul McGuiness some years previous. In an Under-9 match between United and Everton, McGuiness remembers. “Rooney scored the perfect bicycle kick, which for a kid of eight or nine years old was really something special." It merely hinted at what was to follow and, of course, it was a trick he would repeat on the biggest of stages in the
Manchester derby to net a goal that will be repeated forever more.
By the end of the 2004/05 campaign, his first in a Red shirt after signing from boyhood club Everton, Rooney had amassed 17 goals in 43 appearances, and was rightly named PFA Young Player of the Year. Rooney’s second season at Old Trafford again saw him take huge strides. He ended the season with 19 goals in 48 matches and was voted both Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year by fans and PFA Young Player of the year (again) by his fellow professionals.
The young striker openly aims to better his goal tally each season and, despite a difficult World Cup with England in 2006, Rooney went on to net 23 times for United as the Reds lifted the Carling Cup and a first English title in three years. Cristiano Ronaldo stole all the headlines in 2007/08, but Rooney chipped in with another 18 goals, a tally that included three league braces and four goals in Europe. His exciting strike partnership with 19-goal Carlos Tevez was one of the key factors in the Reds' Premier League and Champions League double triumph and cemented his iconic status at Old Trafford. But it's not just Wayne's goals that endeared him to the United faithful.
A tireless worker, Rooney always gives 100 percent and diminish Rooney's potency. Indeed, the pair forged a strong partnership up front and, in January 2009, Wayne embarked on a scoring run that saw him net in five consecutive league games. A month earlier, he stole the show in Japan as United lifted the FIFA Club World Cup, thanks to his winner in the final and a brace off the bench in the semi.
There was more success to follow in 2008/09 as the England striker picked up his third league winners' medal with the Reds in May. Sadly, however, Rooney and United couldn't add another European title as Barcelona ran out victorious in the Champions League final in Rome. The striker began the 2009/10 campaign in fine fettle, netting in the Reds' opening two games against Chelsea, in the Community Shield, and Birmingham City in the league. Another energetic display from Rooney followed in the 5-0 thrashing of Wigan at the DW Stadium on 22 August during which he fired his 100th and 101st goals for the club. Come May, that tally was 131 as Rooney enjoyed his best ever season in front of goal and, at times, appeared to steer the Reds almost single-handedly through both domestic and European waters. And all as an out-and-out centre-forward. His 2009/10 feats were rewarded with a clutch of individual honours, including the PFA and Football
can't stand losing. They are traits that have, from time to time in the past, landed him in hot water, but everybody recognises his immense passion and will to win. The striker's ability to adapt is an attribute often overlooked. Although most at home leading the line or playing just behind a main striker, Rooney also delivered sparkling displays from out wide on numerous occasions. With pace to burn and an eye for a long, raking pass, Rooney's just as effective creating chances as he is taking them.
That said, goals are Rooney's bread and butter and not even the arrival of Dimitar Berbatov at Old Trafford in September 2008 could Writers' Player of the Year awards.
Rooney had always displayed remarkable promise: now he had proved the hype was more than justified. What's more, in October 2010 he penned a new five-year deal, guaranteeing his long-term United future. And while the striker didn't reach anything near top form until the second half of 2010/11, his contribution to the Reds' record-breaking 19th league title was undeniable. When it mattered most, Rooney was there to bang in the goals and drive United towards glory. He dragged Sir Alex's men back from 2-0 down to net a hat-trick in United's 4-2 win at West Ham, was instrumental in the win against Chelsea
at Old Trafford and kept his nerve to slot home the penalty at Ewood Park that ultimately clinched the title.
United’s number ten continued his role as talisman into the 2011/12 season, forming a formidable partnership with loan-returnee Danny Welbeck. Some would say that he fired United through the season in a similar vein to that of 2009/10, always producing goals at key moments.
Wayne notched up 34 of them, which took him ahead of United legend George Best in the table of most prolific United goalscorers, his tally at the time of writing stands at an impressive 181 with only Jack Rowley, Denis Law and Sir Bobby Charlton ahead of him.
Charlton’s record, which had hitherto looked impregnable, now stands on less steady ground. With Rooney only 26 years of age and yet to reach the peak of his career, it would take a brave man to bet against him overtaking one of the most famous footballers ever to play the game.
Shinji Kagawa's arrival in 2012 threatens to influence the role in which Rooney will perform but, after turning his hand to a deeper midfield brief in the previous year, nothing will faze the Merseysider nor diminish his value to the cause. As is so often the case, the hype around his involvement with
England at a major championship, followed by the all-to-familiar exit, led to many suggesting he will return from the break with a point to prove.
In truth, he scored one goal in two games - his suspension for kicking out during the qualifier in Montenegro, totally out of keeping with a virtually flawless campaign in terms of discipline, was always going to affect his input - and also converted his spot-kick in the penalty shoot-out with typical panache. Hence, there will be no worries among the United faithful that he will be at his brilliant best again when he pulls on the red shirt.

David De Gea

A Spain Under-21 international, De Gea is the man who had the unenviable task of replacing Edwin van der Sar when the Dutch keeper retired in 2011.
Born in Madrid in 1990, De Gea is a product of Atletico Madrid’s Academy. Tall, athletic and confident with the ball at his feet, he progressed quickly through Atletico’s youth ranks and spent his first professional season with the club’s Reserves. A first-team debut arrived early in the following season when he made his senior bow as a substitute against FC Porto in the Champions League.
He retained his spot, became a regular between the posts and his dream first campaign was capped with success in the Europa League as he played a major role in delivering Atletico’s first major European trophy in almost 50 years.
De Gea’s reputation was enhanced in his second full season in La Liga and rumours of United’s interest, which had existed since January 2010, gathered pace in September when the Reds' goalkeeper coach Eric Steele was spotted in Spain scouting the young stopper.
By the end of the 2010/11 season, he was touted by many media outlets as Sir Alex Ferguson’s top choice to replace Van der Sar, although talks were put on hold while he helped Spain win UEFA’s Under-21 European Championship in Denmark.

Despite his age and relative inexperience - he joined United after just two full seasons of senior football - De Gea enjoyed a largely successful first campaign at Old Trafford. After enduring a baptism of fire, with critics seemingly scrutinising his every performance, he adapted to the rigours of English league football. After Anders Lindegaard’s New Year run in the team was ended by an injury in training, De Gea emerged revitalised and remained in the United goal from the 3-3 draw at Stamford Bridge until
the season’s end. During that game against Chelsea, he made a superb save to prevent his countryman Juan Mata from grabbing a late winner and, in doing so, hammered home his credentials as a long-term United keeper.
Although he ended the season without any silverware to show for his efforts, aside from the Community Shield, his late-season form will have reassured fans who were concerned after the departure of Van der Sar. After earning his first call-up to the full Spain squad, he was named captain of his country's Olympic team - meaning he missed United's pre-season tour.

Sir Alex Ferguson




Sir Alex Ferguson is the most successful manager in British football history, winning almost 40 trophies – including 13 Premier League titles – during his time in charge of Manchester United.
He arrived at Old Trafford on 6 November 1986 and will retire at the end of the 2012/13 season.
Ferguson enjoyed a playing career in Scotland that saw him take in spells with Queen's Park, St Johnstone, Dunfermline, Glasgow Rangers, Falkirk and Ayr United. But it is not for his playing of the game that Sir Alex was to become a success.
Following a spell out of the game he
moved into coaching, taking up the role of manager of East Stirlingshire, St Mirren then Aberdeen. It was his time at Pittodrie where he earned his reputation as a top coach. He broke the Glasgow dominance of Scottish football to lead Aberdeen to three Scottish titles, four Scottish cups, one League Cup and one European Cup Winners’ Cup.
Following the sacking of Ron Atkinson as manager of Manchester United in 1986, the Old Trafford hierarchy moved quickly for his services.

Ferguson inherited a dispirited team of underachievers who had consistently, to their supporters’ discontent, failed to break Liverpool’s domination. Stuck in the bottom four of the Division One table, Ferguson immediately set about attempting to stave off the very real threat of relegation. Without resorting to the transfer market, he guided United up the table to an 11th place finish.


By now it was clear to Ferguson that he faced a major job in turning the club around. United were an entertaining side but one that seemed unable to cope with the more physical aspects of League football. In his second season the Reds fared better finishing second behind Liverpool, but the position painted a false picture. The turning point came in the 1989/90 season.

Following a run of games in which the Reds were drawn away
in every round, United picked up their first silverware of the Ferguson era. Lee Martin scoring the only goal in a final replay against Crystal Palace to win the FA Cup.
This first trophy opened the floodgates. The European Cup Winners’ Cup was won the following season in Rotterdam, Barcelona defeated 2-1 thanks to a brace from Mark Hughes. Then, in 1991/92, the League Cup was added to United’s list of honours.

Sadly the title remained elusive. It was the Holy Grail to United fans, the 26 championships-free years being exacerbated by Liverpool’s dominance of the domestic and European game.

In 1992/93 the long wait for the League championship came to an end with the Reds, inspired by £1m signing Eric Cantona, pipping Aston Villa in the final weeks of the season.


The shackles were broken: the Double followed in 1993/94, the double-Double (with ‘kids’) in 1995/96, and another title in 1997. Finally United were matching off-field might with on-field success. Liverpool’s dominance was well and truly over.

Sir Alex’s greatest achievement came in 1998/99. No side before or since has achieved a Treble haul of Premiership title, FA Cup and European Cup. On an unforgettable night in Barcelona his decision to throw on substitutes Teddy Sheringham and Ole
Gunnar Solskjaer assured history was made. The pair scored injury-time goals to win the Champions League and complete the Treble.
Ferguson was knighted following that success and some suggested he should retire, believing his desire would wane following the realisation of a dream. Not a bit of it. Another title followed in 1999/2000 and he made it three-in-row in 2000/01. His eighth Premiership duly arrived in 2002/03; his fifth FA Cup came a year later, against Millwall in Cardiff.

The Reds had by now entered a period of rebuilding. The side of homegrown players he’d first put together in 1995/96 was now breaking up and he’d

recruited new stars like Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo to spark a new era of success.
The rebuilding paid off with victory in the Carling Cup in 2005/06 and a ninth Premier League trophy in 2006/07. In May 2007, Sir Alex swooped for three players - Anderson, Nani and Owen Hargreaves - to bolster an already strong squad. This evolving team claimed more glory in 2007/08, defending the Premier League title and securing Sir Alex's second Champions League triumph with all three of those signings scoring in the penalty shoot-out against Chelsea.

United followed European success by winning the FIFA Club World Cup in Japan in December
2008. The Reds then claimed the Carling Cup in March 2009 by beating Tottenham on penalties in the final.
On 16 May 2009, United achieved what had seemed an impossible mission when Sir Alex arrived in 1986, equalling Liverpool's long-standing record of 18 league championships. Beating Liverpool to the 2008/09 crown – Sir Alex's 11th title in 17 seasons – made the feat even sweeter.

Even better was to follow two years later. After being pipped to the championship by a point by Double winners Chelsea, United had to settle for the Carling Cup as the only trophy of 2010. But the Reds
wrestled the Premier League title back with typical determination as Wayne Rooney's penalty at Blackburn ensured United surpassed Liverpool as the most successful club in the domestic game. 
There was final-day heartbreak in 2011/12 as Manchester City pipped the Reds to the league title with just seconds of the season remaining. That disappointment made the manager doubly determined to reclaim the trophy in 2012/13 – his final season in charge – and his side delivered a fitting send-off to by clinching the club's 20th league title with four games to spare.
Sir Alex will continue to be involved at United following his retirement, taking up a position on the club's board and acting as an ambassador.
