Strachan: No Fergie feud

[sportbilly]

Celtic manager Gordon Strachan says there is no more animosity between him and Sir Alex Ferguson.

Strachan, who played under Ferguson at both Aberdeen and Manchester United, takes his Celtic side to Old Trafford to face The Red Devils in their opening UEFA Champions League group clash on Wednesday evening.

The former Coventry City and Southampton boss fell out with Ferguson after the former Scotland boss claimed Strachan 'couldn't be trusted an inch' in his autobiography published seven years ago.

Despite the comments, Strachan is not concerned about the past, as he looks ahead to Wednesday's big European clash.

"All the history between me and Fergie is an irrelevance to Wednesday's game," Strachan told the Sunday Mirror.

"He sat in my office recently for 40 minutes and we laughed and joked and talked about football and the old days.

"What anyone interprets from that is up to them."

Strachan knows the Scottish Premier League champions appear as underdogs to those outside of Scotland.

"Our fans actually expect us to go to Old Trafford and beat United," he added. "But the rest of the football world say we are the underdogs and can play without pressure.

"In Glasgow, and in Scotland as a whole, they'll want us to take the win - even though we are playing against one of the world's best teams in one of the world's best stadiums.

"I'm new to the Champions League and so are nearly all my players. The United boys have got years and years of experience of it. But there's no pressure off us going there."
