    He may well be correct but what does Brentan know about ****ing old school ethics?

    Likes the sound of his own voice that one. Him and his buddy Alan Brazil, chief ****e talkers extraordinaire.

    He's the only one I hear live on talk sport every other morning driving into work.

    All managers give press conferences however.

    Yeah but I guess my point is that they all put a hell of a lot of stock in their own opinions :)

    Rodgers ain't the worst out there.

    Holloway's little rant about Rooney wanting to leave United was <doh>

    As for Fergie's book, not sure why anyone really gives a bollocks about what he says, the aim was to sell as many copies as possible and all of this is doing an excellent job on that front<ok>

    The reaction is doing an excellent job, the media can be thanked for that for ONLY quoting the bits likely to get a rise from opposition fans.

    The hilarious thing for me is that for all the threads on here lambasting him and saying how shameful he is, not a single one person will have read it. None. Zilch.

    It's all based on what's been fed to them, deliberately, by the likes of talk sport.

    ****ing read it, and if he's still an utter **** then fair enough. I will be reading it myself for obvious reasons but I won't be afraid to say if he's come across as an arsehole on certain things.

    Otherwise it's a load of outraged people being outraged because they think they should be outraged on something they haven't even ****ing well read.

    ruff I've read a few times that the book is far less scathing than we are being led to believe anyway as you say, I think this is the media selling **** of course but perhaps a bit of payback if you will from press scorned or just a case of him not being in the game anymore and some press taking full advantage of the fact he can't ban them anymore lol

    Completely agree.

    Was listening to the dreaded talk sport yesterday and Alan Brazil just kept bringing one after the other player or reporter on in a desperate attempt to back up his theory on how it was scandalous and it undermined Moyes and was bad timing for United.

    Not one agreed with him and everyone who HAD read it said there is way, way more good complimentary stuff than bad and those he did have a have something to say on we already knew or had heard before.

    Media spin. And it's being hoovered up by gullible fools.

    My point is Matt has got it totally wrong, BR is 'not trying to make a name for himself' he is giving his opinion. Do you disagree that Gerrard is a top player?

    Do you disagree that talks with players etc should stay private? Thats all he's said as other have too

    So according to the OP Ferguson can rip to bits whoever he wants but nobody has the right to response?

    As DR pointed out Rodgers was asked for his opinion and gave it, no problem there then.
