Default Sir Alex Fergusons wife has passed away..
Sad news today.

Flags at half mast at Old Trafford

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67032729

Lady Cathy Ferguson, the wife of former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, has died aged 84.

The couple married in 1966, spending 57 years as husband and wife, and had three sons, including Peterborough boss Darren Ferguson.

"We are deeply saddened to confirm the passing yesterday of Lady Cathy Ferguson," a statement from the Ferguson family said.

"The family asks for privacy at this time."

Manchester United said in a statement: "Everyone at Manchester United sends our heartfelt condolences to Sir Alex Ferguson and his family on the passing of Lady Cathy, a beloved wife, mother, sister, grandmother and great-grandmother, and a tower of strength for Sir Alex throughout his career."

Cathy and Sir Alex met in 1964 while they were both working at a typewriter factory.

When Sir Alex announced his retirement as Manchester United manager in 2013, he said: "My wife Cathy has been the key figure throughout my career, providing a bedrock of both stability and encouragement.

RIP.

I hope that Fergie and his children are coping the best that they possibly can during such a tragic time, it's not easy when losing a family member, so hopefully they'll all be looking out for each other.

Yeah, often the one behind doesn't last long, like Liz after Phil went, dying of a broken heart is a thing
