Shayne Ward pays almost £7000 for Alex Ferguson’s office chair
Shayne Ward must be a real football fanatic! Who else would fork out almost £7000 for a manky old office chair, just because Sir Alex Ferguson once parked his bum there?
The former X Factor winner bought the chair in a charity auction at Old Trafford and was obviously desperate to get his hands on some Manchester Untied history.
Shayne told The Sun: “It was between me and another guy. Sir Alex was going wild and said the chair would go to the next bid.
“I paid something like £6,700 for it. Six years ago I could have bought it from the shop for £6.
“People said, ‘You are sick for getting that chair’. But I say that you’ve got to understand the decisions which have been made in it and the fact Sir Alex signed it to me. Alex Ferguson was looking at me – I was on his radar!”
More money than sense if you ask me. He had better hope that new album of his sells well, if he’s going to keep spending money at this rate.

Obviously has no sense, nice face, nice voice, no brain lol.
He was donating to charity Trudy. How on earth can you say he has “no sense” for doing that.
Well done Shayne!!
I was referring to the fact that he thought the chair was worth that sort of money just because it was Alex Ferguson’s and he had signed it. I was not ridiculing the fact that he donated money to charity that was very worthwhile. Apologies for not making myself clear in my earlier post.
