Rejected petition Unite the nation - Sir Alex Ferguson to manage the England football team

The nation's in turmoil.

The Scots are thinking about leaving, the football is a disaster, Boris has dodged the poison chalice and there's rumours swirling that a Frenchman might be in the running to lead the national team.....

More details

PLEASE join me in solving this tricky problem with one fell swoop.

A footballing genius, a Scot, a Knight of the Realm and currently out of work and in slippers - Sir Alex is the man to bring us back into alignment and winning ways again.

I urge MPs to debate this issue urgently so we can resolve this national shame and bring our great country back from the brink.

We only have 2 years before we leave Europe and the World Cup starts - we need to act now!
