He's arguably the greatest manager of all-time and definitely the most successful in terms of trophy wins - Sir Alex Ferguson is celebrating his 80th birthday this New Year's Eve after an incredible life in football.
The Glasgow-born young striker emerged into one of football's biggest personalities, becoming a cult hero at Aberdeen before his incredible 26-year career at Manchester United.
From his infamous 'hairdryer treatment' to the tactical genius that made him the only manager in English football to win the Treble, Ferguson dominated both the front and the back pages of Britain's broadsheets as he forged a career that has yet to be matched.
As Fergie celebrates his special landmark, Sportsmail goes through the archives to bring you the best photos from his playing days in Scotland to the champagne farewell at Old Trafford.
