Don’t write our title hopes off yet, says Ferguson

ALEX FERGUSON is not writing off Manchester United’s Premiership title chances just yet despite Chelsea’s flying start to the season.

The champions reeled off their ninth straight league win when they put five past Bolton on Saturday, consolidating their 10-point advantage over the third-placed Red Devils.

Even though less than a quarter of the campaign has been completed, some bookmakers have already started paying out on Jose Mourinho’s men, so certain are they Chelsea will retain their crown.
