Manchester United Thread

[aftermath]

i have seen it about 20 times yet and still cant make my mind up what is the right decision . but i agree with what you said at least we won.

I would rather see us pick our game up and stop lowering our standards to the oppositions standard before i have a heart attack.

Sir Alex Ferguson has defended his conduct on Boxing Day, launched a withering attack on Alan Pardew and labelled Newcastle a "wee club."

The Manchester United manager has been heavily criticised for his behaviour in the 4-3 win in which he was seen to remonstrate with referee Mike Dean and his assistants.

Pardew said Ferguson should have been punished, and that Dean may regret not reporting the United boss to the FA.

But Ferguson said: "I was demonstrative but I was not out of order. The press have had a field day. The only person they have not spoken to is Barack Obama because he is busy.

"It is unfortunate but I am the manager of the most famous club in the world. Not Newcastle, a wee club in the north east.

"It is unfortunate but I am the manager of the most famous club in the world. Not Newcastle, a wee club in the north east."
Sir Alex Ferguson Quotes of the week

"I was demonstrative. I am always demonstrative. Everyone knows that. I am an emotional guy. But I was not abusive.

"I shouted Mike over. We walked towards each other. I was only on (the pitch) three or four yards. That has been overplayed.

"The problem for me is that the profile of this club is huge.

"Alan Pardew has come out and criticised me. He is the worst at haranguing referees. He shoves them and makes a joke of it. How he can criticise me is unbelievable. He forgets the help I gave him, by the way."

Pardew was given a two-match touchline ban and fined ?20,000 after accepting an FA charge of improper conduct for pushing an assistant referee earlier this season.

He was sent off during the 2-1 win over Tottenham on August 18 at St James' Park when he pushed Peter Kirkup after claiming the ball had gone out of play during a Spurs attack.

Is fergie becoming the biggest knob in football right now?

He really is showing signs of old age.

I think its time to shut up and retire.....its getting embarrassing for united now.

I think he felt hurt because Pardew didn't agree with his comments over RVP and Williams.

Nope and why should he retire ?

[slippy05]

Nope and why should he retire ?

As much as you love him, he can't deny science.

He is 70+ the prime age for dementia and basically losing your marbles.

He has displayed signs of this more and more, saying RVP could have been killed and actually meaning it....is well

Abit mad?

And now this stuff with pardew....

Just think its getting abit too much for him now.

Definately lost the plot 7 points clear in the EPL with tbh nowhere near as strong team as we have had in the past

doesnt say much for the rest of the managers then does it??


wonder what they would say about him if we were mid table?


andy's right though should have ket it too pardew no need to bring newcastle as a team into it, its a bit low

but it sells a few more papers funny how more people are bothered about what fergie says than their own team

not fat from the truth, people might think he is daft, but look at our last few games we have been pure sh1te , yet the papers only write about what Sir Alex has been saying or doing, its all about taking the heat off the team.

Every Manager after the game these days is moaning about referees decision , Alex is no different..

Whats beautiful in all of this is that the media are starting to circle abit finally

Today on soccer saturday i heard the question i have been waiting to hear for a very long time

"are the F.A scared of alex ferguson"

And the resounding answer was yes..they even laughed like it was a stupid thing to ask, as it was so obvious.

"are referee's scared of ferguson"

Everyone answers yes

They even spoke of refs not wanting to "upset" fergie for fear of not getting another united game to ref....diluted curruption right there.

Seems like the media has finally woken up to what we have all known for a very long time

Fergie has the F.A and match officials in his back pocket

Only the 7 points clear?





This game is about to wake up and your about to witness some big revelations i think

Just got to find a journalist with a set of balls to get it all rolling

[andy1967]

Hasn't all this come from a ref saying an offside position was a goal, think about it..

Slippy are you 70+ years old, you sound like you have dementia and basically losing your marbles

said it on soccer am.. well thats fact then isnt it?

soccer am which is ostensibly a COMEDY football show..

[zee24]

"If the FA do no charge Alex Ferguson after his outbursts at officials today we may as well chuck away the rule book. No respect whatsoever!"

"The extent to which English football is running scared of Ferguson is embarrassing. The FA, PL & the media need to toughen up." #mufc #nufc
