Oh, and Arsenal's game was cancelled? Weather maybe? Aren't there places over there where it's flooded?
On another note: do you think any other manager (whether he was in the right or not) would have got away with haranguing the officials the way Fergie did? He wasn't even sent to the stands! Can you see Harry or Rafa or AVB getting away with that? **** Ferguson, he's a ****. Can't take it when decisions go against him. Had that been a goal for them, and ruled in, he wouldn't have had a problem with it. He's a hypocritical ****.

Oh was that it, makes sense actually as I know a gooner who said he was annoyed he couldn't watch Arsenal today. Assumed it wasn't on TV or something.
Yep, Ferguson really showed himself up today. He knows what he's doing though, you can't knock him for it, he really is a wily old fox. Same thing with the recent RVP comments at Swansea. He knew what he was saying would get attention, so instead of people talking about Rooney being diabolical (see his passing Goofle?
) or the fact United lost 2 points over City, everyone was focused on his comments. United are now 7 points clear. That's why he's so successful. Today he put pressure on the refs, he's bending the rules and trying to get
any advantage he can, he's been doing this for years with the mind games too. It's like with Barcelona if you watch Spanish football, one of the reasons they are so hard to stop is because one of their little unsporting tricks is if the opposition are on a counter attack, they'll pull their shirt/trip them, give a free kick away and then stand in front of the ball so the opposition can't take it quickly, then by the time the opposition can take the kick everyone is already back in position to defend it. It's very, very clever. Ferguson should be punished though, yes.
I really don't get why he wasn't sent to the stands. They must be scared of him. Great manager, **** of a man.
