    So, this is an interesting article. And it shows a lot about how Ol' Red Nose thinks his team should be treated by the FA

    So this bit I agree with. The man is quite rightly saying that he has a club to run, and he is expected to win games - but how can he do that when the FA are allowed to call-up his players at will. And during the Premiership season (although is that more FIFAs fault?)

    He is saying that the youth set up he has created is a great service to the England team. And I think that is true.

    But then we have this...

    What?! Eh?! So what was this article about? It started out being against the FA calling up Man U players during the season and ended up with Ferguson being fine with that, and instead giving the message that "Man U provide a lot of players for the England team, so don't punish us when we break the rules because without us you would be ****ed".

    I can't work out if it is bad journalism or if it is Ferguson playing his games with the FA.

    But either way, no team - irrespective of what they provide for the England set up should be treated differently to any other. End of.

    Now... whether the FA and their "rules" are a joke? That is a separate question...

    I like Moyes' indifference to the disgusting sight before his eyes.

    Ferguson just proving how arrogant he is again. Didn't he get a suspended for questioning someone's fitness or something.

    Fergie moaning about Manure being treated unfairly, if anything they get treated better than most but, then again when is old bacon face not having a bitch about something.

    And Barca don't seem to have a problem with their players being called up to the Spain team. And most of Barca's first team play in the Spanish team!

    Arrogant, bitter old man. That attitude is reflected by his group of players. Horrible team/club.

    Be nice if the BBC banned him as it's been quite refreshing not to see his relentless ****e all over the place.

    I think the correlation that needs to be made is that players only get called up to the England squad if they play for Manchester United.

    Phil Jones? Really? and Welbeck...was he ever called up from Sunderland?

    Mentioning the England players called up the way he did, to me is bullying tactics, got to get another 3 match touchline ban, surely.

    Dear BBC,

    I don't pay my licence fee to have some old man moaning about the inequalities and injustices of life so please can you ban Mr Alex Ferguson from future broadcasts.

    Regards.

    I think he's lucky to only get a 5 match ban for giving Dwight Yorke a gobble in full view of everyone.
