Is Manure's demise the fault of Fergie

[ex_pat_magpie]

It's now eleven seasons since Fergie gave up the reigns at Manure and although they have had moderate success they haven't and don't look like ever being what they were under his iron rod rule.

The players, every one, of them were terrified of him, all of the staff at Manure, including those running the club above him were terrified of him. And most importantly those at the F.A. internal officials and officials on the field were terrified of him in so much that Manure got away with much more in the way of dodgy decisions than any other club in the Premiership.

I reckon that if Fergie had passed on the secrets of his nastiness, and how to retain his power mad achievements to his following managers then Manure would still be a force to be reckoned with rather than the damp squib that they have become.
