Manchester United legend, Roy Keane has come out to speak about an extraordinary error Sir Alex Ferguson made shortly before he left the club. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, David Gill and Sir Alex Ferguson told him about a statement they had prepared for his departure, and to his utmost surprise, it read that he had been at the club for 11 and a half years, when he had in fact served for a year longer.

Keane added that it was when they both asked him to read it that he realized the major error.
His words, “I got called into a meeting with Ferguson and Gill and before I sat down they say: ‘Here we go, we’ve already prepared a statement, would you like to read it?’ And they had the years wrong!”
WOW.
Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.
Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.
Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.
The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992, beating Nottingham Forest 1–0 in the second to win that competition for the first time as well.
