The Security Game
Thanks to Manchester Uniteds memorable victory over Chelsea at Old Trafford a victory which will stand despite the fact that in the eyes of the Special One they didnt deserve it Sir Alex is officially off the brink.
This of course does not mean that if United experience another wobbly in the future, the press will refrain from claiming that he is back on the brink but if its any consolation the same could be said of many others. Graeme Souness, Steve Bruce, Mick McCarthy, David Moyes, Brian Robson all of them have recently had brinks of their own to contend with.
Sooner or later, it happens to practically every football manager. Insecurity, it seems, is part of the job description. So much so that it would be accurate to describe the vast majority of them as being of no fixed brink.
Unlike those who appointed them.
