Really good article in the athletic about it
I really hope he succeeds in his management dreams
I won't post the full article as you have to pay for access to the site, but I liked this excerpt
"For a long while, the general consensus was that Ferguson would step away from football altogether after his retirement in 2006. He spent the next few years in self-imposed exile in Spain, returning to Goodison Park only for the occasional club event.
It is not known for certain what prompted his change of heart, but one school of thought is that the genesis of his coaching aspirations came at the home of close friend and Everton legend Howard Kendall.
Ferguson would frequent Kendall’s house on the Sefton coast near Southport most Sundays, watching the afternoon’s live Premier League matches before enjoying a roast cooked by Kendall’s wife Lily. The pair would discuss what happened in the games, taking in the evening’s La Liga action too, with Kendall particularly fond of making notes on what he saw. "
