Sir Alex Ferguson Returns To Queen's Park For Kit Launch

Sir Alex Ferguson has returned to Queen's Park to help launch their 150th anniversary kit more than half-a-century after making his debut for the club.

The former Manchester United manager started out in football as a striker with the Scottish club and made a goalscoring debut as a 16-year-old against Stranraer in November 1958.

"I was delighted when Queen's Park got in touch and asked me to help their new strip," the 74-year-old told the League One club's Facebook page after being invited back to Hampden Park.

"Scotland colours are known across the world and it fantastic that the club's role as pioneers in the game is recognised in this way."

Ferguson played for three years for Queen's Park, scoring 15 goals in 31 league appearances before joining St Johnstone.

He also played for Dunfermline, Rangers, Falkirk and Ayr before starting out in management with East Stirlingshire in 1974 at the age of 32. 

The Scot took charge of United in 1986 and went on to becme Britain's most successful manager, winning 38 trophies and 13 league titles before retiring in 2013.
