SPARE a thought for Sir Alex Ferguson’s wife, Cathy. Football has been his life. His retirement has filled nearly as many newspaper pages as Margaret Thatcher’s funeral. He’s done laps of honour and a triumphant bus ride.
He’s always had a whole club full of footballers to train, organise and shout at.
And now he’ll be home. All day.
Even on Saturdays.
If I were Cathy Ferguson I’d buy him a shed. Soon.
A SURVEY of 17,000 university students recently found that many of them admitted studying for only 20 hours a week.
That many?
No wonder the world of work comes as a horrible shock.
