Didn't know the old pisscan was having his hip replaced this summer.
Fergie's cracking up. Literally.
Is this the beginning of the end? Do I need to get the jellyt & icecream ready?
Hope so. Then again, Moyes is a bitter and twisted piece of nastiness himself, with no overarching love for MCFC, so they'd just be replacing like for like.

Bookmakers slash odds on Moyes joining Manchester United
Bookmakers have slashed odds on Everton manager David Moyes joining Manchester United in the summer.
The Everton manager is out of contract at the end of the season and Paddy Power slashed his odds on becoming next Manchester United from 7/2 to 1/2 favourite after what they called a "flood of overnight bets."
Meanwhile, Victor Chandler said that Moyes was more likely to start next season at Manchester United than Everton – possibly as Sir Alex Ferguson's number two before taking over as manager at a later date.
At 2pm on Monday they offered 6/4 that Moyes would begin next season at Old Trafford and 2/1 that he would be with Everton.
The situation is complicated with by the news earlier this week that Ferguson is to have a hip operation that could see him miss the start of next season.
Manchester United have privately confirmed reports that Ferguson is booked in for surgery immediately after the club return from their three-week pre-season tour at the end of July.
That Ferguson will have his summer break and then travel to Thailand, Australia, Japan and Hong Kong before the operation suggests he is not going to be sidelined for too long.
However, United must face either Manchester City or Wigan in the Community Shield at Wembley on August 11, with their title defence due to begin the following weekend.
No timescale is being put on Ferguson's likely absence but it would require a rapid recovery from the 71-year-old in order for him to be back in the dug-out by then.
Ferguson has always said his health would dictate how long he would carry on as United manager.
He was taken ill at a function in his native Scotland almost 12 months ago, although his nosebleeds were put down to the amount of short flights he had undertaken.
Ferguson subsequently missed pre-season matches in Norway and Germany and also sat out a mid-winter break in Qatar.
