Fergie Has Old Timer’s and Other Tidbits

By: CSD | January 24th, 2008

Sir Alex Ferguson woke up today, after sleeping for three months, and realized that there was another reason to be on the anti-Liverpool bandwagon and quickly hopped aboard. Seriously, Fergie, I know you’re getting older, but has your mind gone so much that you didn’t realize what was going on? Or maybe, you just found a time to take a shot at the owners and thus the club, when it was safe that the majority of the public would agree with you.

“What happened was a bad piece of business on Liverpool’s part, no doubt about that,” Ferguson commented.

“That can be very upsetting. You should let a manager to get on with his job.”


Gee ya think? The problem is that this has been said over and over. We’ve heard it, we agree with it, but really don’t need to hear it again from the boss at Man U. Stay out of Liverpool’s business and get back to finding England’s Next Top Model to put in your midfield.

The deal to bring Momo Sissoko to Juventus will more than likely be finished in the next few days. I’ll miss Momo (not much), but also support Juventus and hope he will fit better into their program.

John Terry has recently commented that he believes Jamie Carragher is the best defender in the world. This is true… so, please Jamie, for the love of GOD, get back to playing for England!

Fans are apparently preparing a financial boycott of Liverpool FC. I’m assuming this means they will stop purchasing all retail items as well as not attending matches. So much of what has been going on at Anfield has been related back to America and politics. I saw a sign in the last match with Aston Villa that mentioned the Iraq war. The thing that separates America from England is that while we hate the war and the lies that led us there, we still support the troops. It is not the troops’ fault that they’re there. Please don’t take out your owner frustrations on the players. Now, more than ever, we need butts in seats cheering for the home team. We don’t need empty stands with the ones that did bother to turn up showcasing anti-owner sentiment. The message we send to the players should be, “We’re behind you and expect you to give it your all.”

    I cant work out, is he genuinely trying to publicly support Rafa? Or just twisting the knife while he can. As much as he’s an old b*stard he has a point, especially with his comments about us being a much tighter run ship when Robinson was club sec. “Coco the Clown” can hardly hold his head up high before, during or after all this malarkey. He should have dug a little deeper into the pairs history in sports, especially Hicks. An hour spent on google would have provided enough reason to go with DIC.

    I think our fans are just frustrated (obviously). Talks of boycotting matches are probably just early signs of desperation, not knowing the best way to vent the anger and hopelessness of the situation. In time if things aren’t resolved im sure we will see better orchestrated demonstrations without stopping our support for OUR team.

    And i prefer to see Carra saving his legs for us rather that wasting his time with England.

    Like in the USA… we have unions too!!!
    And there is a union called the LMA - that means League Managers Association where every Football (not soccer) manager in the UK is a member.

    SAF is rite to support his fellow manager - although I am sure he didn’t want too - see the difference between Glazer and the razor person (Gillette) the best a man can get - is that Double Glazer knew what he was doing by putting Man U into debt…. the razor man just wants a quick ‘buck.’

    Where were you this week- sorting out Luton. Utd they were in Saudia Arabia, expanding their fan base and coining it in!!!!

    And you have got Havant and Waterlooville this Saturday. I know where I wanna be!!!!

    Going to watch Chelsea at Wigan on Saturday. Tell your Evertonian friends. They were outsung last nite at Goodison - Chelsea fans who made the journey - RESPECT!!
