“When Keegan left we tried to get Ferguson to Newcastle as his replacement. We had talks with his advisors at the time. Martin Edwards rang and said to me, ‘Have you got anything to tell me?’ “I said, ‘No’. “He said ‘What if I said, “Ferguson”, what would you say?’ “I was on a boat at the time and I nearly fell off it. We soon realised there was no way he was going to come to Newcastle. He was just trying to get an increase in salary. We knew we were just being used. Kevin had left and we tried to get Ferguson but that’s as far as we got. We were ambitious, we tried to get him – at least we tried. At one time we thought we might get him because he wasn’t happy with Man U. It wasn’t to be though.”
