Fergie: no retirement date

Sir Alex Ferguson has refused to put a time limit on when he decides to retire or step down as Manchester United coach. The Man Utd favorite reportedly said earlier in the week that he hoped to continue for three further years.

He said: 'It is something I have said quite a bit. If your health is good and you are enjoying your job, it could be two or three years.

'I am not going to pigeon-hole myself on that one.

'It could be four years, it could be tomorrow. It is impossible to put a time limit on something like this.'
