Any other manager would have been sent to that stands referee didn't even give him a word.

He's a bully. His sons clearly learned from their father.

I'm pretty sure Sir Alex Ferguson has never been accused of knocking Mrs Sir Alex Ferguson about.

Anyway, he was probably stressed. SkySports area reporting that Rooney will now miss 2-3 weeks with a knee injury.
There is no confirmation yet as to whether it's potentially fatal or not.

Wow!Was it a football that hit him or a cannonball....or one of Fergies flying boots or bottles in the dressing room....tut tut!
One would eat all the turkey and the other drink all your booze.

Anyone else would get reported for that. It was bullying, plain and simple.

Just seen Fergies antics on MOTD, completely out of order. A 3 match touchline ban would be appropriate but nothing will happen.

He will get away with it again
Something should be done, but nothing will be. Just heard Pulis was fined £10,000 for comments on the ref (was said during game on SS1 earlier). What Fergie did today was far worse than that, but to an extent one must look at why the referee did nothing.
If officials want respect, they have to take action against those who treat them with a lack of it. I referee youth football for a bit of cash outside of uni, and I've asked two parents to leave before in 4 years (ish) worth of doing it, both for comments made during the game. I've booked 2 people for dissent/foul language, because I warn both teams at the first sign of backchat that I'm more than happy to book them if needs be. I dont want to book players, I've played the game since I was 5, and understand you get frustrated at times. Warn 'em if they're pushing their luck, and then book them when they ignore that warning. But the referee's wont do it in the big leagues.
Nothing will change 'til they do.

Ah, but then you have to realise that the 70K in Old Trafford don't come to watch the ref, they come to see their superstars win. And if their superstars disagree with the ref, they have every right. It's one eyed football loyalty.

Another shocking episode of hypocrisy hits the headlines, we now seem to be stuck in a constant loop and it always seems to come back to Rudolph the cud chewing antagonist.

It would be nice he could see the hypocrisy of his hypocrisy though ?

Was there something about him saying Benitez was 'disrespectful' for calling Everton a small club? Alex Ferguson, you may be the most successful manager in England of all time, but you are the most successful c**t too!

The man is a classless bullying oik. I cannot stand him. I cannot stand Man Utd nor their so called fans either. If Wenger is sent to the stands and banned for kicking a water bottle, and Pardew is banned for "pushing" an official, then Ferguson should be equally punished for harranging the officials. Just because he thinks someone is interfering with play does not mean that "in the opinion of the officials" this was the case. Who the f..... does he think he is? Is he and his "Im the manager of Mighty Man Utd, who the f... are you" attitude above the rules??
