As a Doctor I do think that the fact that they operated on him is in itself a positive sign , if the bleed was huge they wouldn't have done anything
Fergie!

Please Fergie, get well soon. You are a source of strength to everybody. Seeing you in the stands at every match is one of the highlights. Fingers crossed, all will be well. 
fecking hell, wellin up here. Please no
This doesn't feel real.
You're sound mate, just like the vast majority of Liverpool supporters. We might be rival clubs but when the chips are down we've got a lot more in common than not. Every fanbase has its scummy elements and it doesn't reflect on decent supporters like yourself at all.
Get well soon
Saf is the fighter like the world have never seen, no doubt he will pull it through, he embraces the challenge like no other
First, fast, feck the facts.
I can hear my heart beating. Really speechless. Hope everything turns out okay.
Hope the recovery goes well!
Stay strong, Sir Alex.
This bugger keeps doing it to us doesnt it? Keeps us worrying until the last minute and in Fergie time has us all smiling. Hope this is the case this time. Been suckered in many times thinking all hope is gone by this man for 30 years. There's nothing Alex Ferguson cant do. Keep the faith.
My goodness, this is not news I ever wanted to see but I'm happy that the prognosis seems good. I hope he can make a good recovery and eventually find himself back in the stands. He's a tough glaswegian so I have all the hope in the world for him.
He will pull through. Defeat isnt in his vocabulary.
Hope he recovers quickly enough to see us win the FA Cup. We can give him a hell of a welcome back when he appears on the Wembley screens!
If not, we'll give him a hell of a welcome back at the first home game of next season.
Take the time you need and get better, Fergie! Please.

horrendous news. the only person I know who had this was dead in seconds. let's hope that having survived the incident and the surgery that he can recover. he's only 76 ffs
Come on boss...praying for you!
Saw the pinned statement and felt devastated.
All the best to SAF and his family.
Awful news

Awful news
Sky sports news report sir Alex has had the op and it went well .
Get well soon Boss
@Pogue Mahone I respect your usual understanding of medical conditions. Any feelings about this one?
For a person I don’t know, this has upset me deeply.
Get well soon Sir Alex.
Get well soon Sir Alex.
Thanks for the insight. Its conferting.
I dont know what to do with myself. Just sitting here with tears in my eyes hoping for the boss to be okey.
On a stag do in Temple Bar, Dublin and the announcement came out by the live music act and the whole bar stopped in its tracks. Dublin stood still in shock at the news.
Rational, sensible people realise there's a difference between having a ferocious rivalry on the pitch, but appreciating stuff is way more important than it off the pitch.
It'd be good if some of the nonsense online and even in stadiums was clamped down on, but it's an impossible mission.
You only have to look at any even vaguely controversial subject video on youtube and read the comments to see the bottom of humanity
The statement from United sounds positive I think, so he should hopefully be ok.
As old as I am I started crying once it was confirmed. However, it's Alex Ferguson, the greatest fighter alongside Ali, so have to stay positive.

I genuinely feel sick, hoping all will turn out fine.
I doubt they’re real supporters of anything. Even RAWK’s Fergie thread is filled with nothing but people wishing him a speedy recovery.
I'm taking the fact that they were able to operate and that it's gone well as a sign that they caught it early.
Omg awful news to hear, he is like a father figure to many and I know many people say no one is bigger than the club but for me Sir Alex was Manchester United.
Really sad about the news but Wishing him a speedy recovery and sending lots of love to his family at this difficult time.

Wishing the best for the Boss's recovery. Hopefully he comes out of it just fine.
Can't even get my head around it, just seems surreal. He always felt invincible to me.

Oh that's great to hear..
Get well boss!
Good luck to him. The latest bulletins at least seem a bit more encouraging.
There are differences but this isn't the time or place for discussing semantics. We're in Fergie timeBrain hemorrhage is a type of stroke. Hope there's no lasting damage and they got it quickly enough
@Damien or whoever else has the power. Can we threadmark the club statement, or update the OP so people won't have to wade through the the uncertainty before the club statement? First mention of the club statement here: https://www.redcafe.net/threads/sir-alex-admitted-to-hospital.438455/page-5#post-22496738 (post #162)
Oh man, get well gaffer!!
Jesus Christ.
Wishing Sir Alex a full recovery. Stay strong, gentle giant!
