Sir Alex Ferguson was angry to see his side go down to a team which lie 42 league places below them but Jermaine Beckford’s first half goal was enough to dump out the Premier League champions out of the FA Cup.

This was Fergie’s first Third Round defeat and will surely rank as one of the most miserable occasions of his illustrious career. MU never got going in the first-half as the visitors made all the early running. In the 19th minute Beckford, who has been attracting considerable interest from Championship and Premier League clubs, got beyond the United defense to stroke his shot past Tomas Kuszack in the United goal.

Ferguson’s fixation with stoppage-time also led him to describe the referee Chris Foy’s decision to award five minutes at the end as “an insult to the game and the players out there”.

This is the biggest upset for MU supporter. What a disaster new year gift for MU.
