Ahhhh, cool story Mr Ferguson, why don't you try telling it to some fucker who actually cares    :wave

You having a few sly digs at Newcastle made me laugh, I mean, I was in Manchester a few weeks back and every second person was retarded, there were toadstools growing in the street and stray dogs roaming all over the place.  I was approached no fewer than 16 times in the space of 2 hours by dipshits muttering Penny For The Guy, eventhough it was December 7th.   

Is it any wonder you hate the Press Mr Ferguson, huh . . . . . . everybody has seen the video on youtube of your wife riding a journalist in a tree    :lickin

You like to think you are Mr Perfect and better than anybody/everybody else, you think you all sweetness and light, well you thick old c*nt you're not, you are one revolting sausage Ninja.

It's impossible to envision someone with more major problems than Alex Ferguson, to be honest he's the first prick I've ever wanted to crucify.     :wanker

Looking forward to B&W Paul's comments in this thread, knowing how much he loves old bacon face. ;D

And there it is. Cheers Paul. ;D

Pardew was haranguing the officials, says Ferguson shouldn't do the same. Ferguson was haranguing the officials,  says Pardew shouldn't do the same.

All we're missing is a bit of 'my dad's bigger than your dad'.

Still, gives the 24hr sports 'news' people something to make a story with plus the tin foil hat brigade get a chance to point out how Fergie runs the FA, notwithstanding the officials changing their mind about a disallowed goal against his team. If there is a conspiracy it's the worst ever.

That was a decent, exciting match, albeit because it was littered with errors, all anyones interested in now is a managerial spat. It's fucking pathetic really.

The FA let football down YET AGAIN by showing no backbone, this just tells you that it's perfectly acceptable to go on a tirade in the face of officials.

Managers in Sunday League Football all the way down to Under 10's are going to mimic these actions and come up with the excuse "Well I saw Ferguson do it so it's okay."

I want anybody but Man United to win the League so we can see that cretin squirm, yes I would even put my hatred of Chelsea aside even if they were to become champions.  :wave

I don't see why such a big fuss is being made. That c*nt Tony Pulis does it every game without fail and no one seems to say a thing and he's not the only manager.

What's happening is quite clear. All the attention is on the managers and everyone forgets that Newcastle are 3 points of the relegation zone and that a bunch of drunk clowns were playing at the back for United

I haven't got a link they were saying this in the car earlier when I was off to the shop.

They read out what Rafa said at the time and said he is now proven right.

Absolute vile c*nt of a man who's standing in the game has been directly and indirectly influencing officials decisions in the game for 20 years. It's no longer a 'conspiracy' by Liverpool fans, every other fan knows how obvious and blatant it is nowadays.. and accepted sadly. Give a decision against them twats at Old Trafford? Don't expect to ref there again for a long time.

The thing is, his rant was a complete lie, and after seeing the replays showing that Evans pulled the arm of the Newcastle player and not the other way around, he hasn't had the bottle or dignity to apologise and admit he got it wrong. The shithouse lies and the media lap it up and back him up because they are scared of getting banned from Old Trafford again.
If a reporter was to point this out to him he would swear he was right and bully the reporter and stop him ever interviewing him again. Fact.

"He forgets the help I've given him, by the way."

I'm probably being a grumpy tawt and reading too much into that but what a fucking horrible man he is. So much subtext to that line, like how dare Pardew criticise him, but at the same time showing the influence he has in this League in terms of making or breaking the careers of some of the younger managers. Basically, keep in with me and I'll look after you...

Or am I just being paranoid?!

No mate,not at all, The man has to be the biggest prick in football, same when Rafa had his "rant" Martinez (Wigan) stood up for Rafa but a few days later was complaining about being misquoted and of course then he had his picture taken with Shitface at the LMA Christmas dinner. Strange that the FA say they cannot do anything about twatface and his behaviour toward the 4th official because the referee didn't put it in his report. I bet any other manager would have been dealt with severely. So no you're not being paranoid mate just a frustrated fan of football, who also believes that the Goven tramp should be executed.

No, never let it go, he hated Rafa because he couldn't beat him and of course Rafa told the truth in his "rant". I sincerely hope that Chelsea win the League, just so that prat will more than likely have a heart attack

Because they know that their paper/website/channel will be black listed by United and lets face it, thats a big loss to anybody. Since he started talking to BBC again they have been walking on egg shells, desperate not to upset him again.

And it's not past Ferguson to try and destroy journalists who dare write anything against him:

Well, you could ask why it's taken the media 26 years to start 'slaughtering' him.
