Alex Ferguson's worst defeats as a manager - originally posted on Soccerlens.com
Sir Alex Ferguson has said that the 6-1 defeat to Manchester City was his worst day in football.
But is is it his biggest defeat as a manager?
It turns out that this is only the third time (in 2,061 games spread over 37 years) that a team
managed by Ferguson has conceded six goals in a game.

The curtain comes down on domestic football for another season.
Yesterday's Scottish Cup will not perhaps be long remembered as a classic. Celtic too often seemed
unable to click through the gears, that lent long periods of the game a scrappiness that seemed to
offer Motherwell their best hope.
It's not often anyone has all that much to say about Albion Rovers. So now that they've got
quite a good side and at the midway point of this two-legged play-off final look favourites to go
up to the second division, let me take a few moments to do so.
It doesn't help that they have a rather undistinguishable named.
Now, I mustn't mention the Old Firm game. I mustn't. This blog is about the little guys, the
underdogs, the also-rans in Scottish football. Yer Albion Rovers, yer Stranraers, yer Annan
Athletics, yer Heart of Midlothians. So I must not mention what feels like the 400th game this
season between Scotland's playground bullies.
