Fergie's Fledglings

Fergie's Fledglings were a group of football players recruited by Manchester United under the management of Sir Alex Ferguson (often nicknamed "Fergie") and trained by assistant coaches Brian Kidd and Eric Harrison, before eventually progressing to the first team during the 1990s.

"Class of '92" redirects here. For the 2013 documentary film about this group of footballers, see The Class of '92. For the group of three professional snooker players who all turned professional during the 1992–93 snooker season, see Class of '92 (snooker).

The alliteration in the term is a clear homage to the Busby Babes, the famously youthful Manchester United team assembled by the club's former manager Sir Matt Busby and his assistant coach Jimmy Murphy during the 1950s.
