    Fergie has been a right knob, Newcastle are one of the biggest clubs in the country how he can say that is right out of order, he should shut up as that was not offside as it did not touch the striker, obviously he is annoyed that Clattenburg could not ref that game.

    I think the most telling sign about Ferguson not being liked at Old Trafford is that he doesn't even have a proper chant. After being there for 26 years and winning 12 league titles, 2 European cups, 5 FA cups and numerous other trophies.

    Van Persie has one after being there for about 4 months and already has his own song.

    Man Utd fans even have more chants for us (Liverpool) than Ferguson <yikes> Obviously that maybe points to the fact that they have an inferiority complex regarding Liverpool but it still makes me laugh that they haven't come up with a single chant for him over 26 years that is heard regularly at Old Trafford.

    Thought 'Fergie the Red Nosed Reindeer' was his chant.

    It's appropriate at this time of year that this man is the gift that just keeps giving. Manu fans think that such criticism comes from the usual 'haters' motivated by envy, but honestly up until our recent match with Manu I didn't have anything in particular against them. However, comments about RVP almost being RIP were ludicrous, and if that wasn't enough to positively urge the FA to ban Ashley Williams was the final straw for me. He came across as a man who's been allowed a disproportionate amount of influence in this League and is not afraid to try and use it.

    Now he insults one of the biggest clubs in the Prem with his arrogant nonsense. He's stopped being clever and is now just offensive. All because poor little Swansea and 'wee club' Newcastle didn't roll over for him. Contrast his antics with the classy Laudrup who rarely has a pop at anyone, including refs. In our game you just knew that Ferguson was going to collar the ref at half time as he walked off - and he did.

    As I see it Pardew was only saying that he was surprised Ferguson wasn't sanctioned.

    Join the club.

    "I was surprised by what has been said, but maybe they [Manchester United] are nervous because we are at the top of the table.

    "But I want to talk about facts. I want to be clear, I do not want to play mind games too early, although they seem to want to start. But I have seen some facts. On 1 November, they played Hull and Mr Ferguson had a two-match touchline ban and a £10,000 fine after confronting Mike Dean, the referee, for improper conduct.

    "We started the Respect campaign, and that was when [Javier] Mascherano was sent off [last season] at Old Trafford. The referee [Steve Bennett] was the referee when they played against Wigan &#8211; he could not see the handball against Wigan by Rio Ferdinand, he did not give a penalty. They won the game and they won the title in this game. I think it will be the same referee who will be in charge of their game in hand this season [against Wigan].

    "During the Respect campaign &#8211; and this is a fact &#8211; Mr Ferguson was charged by the FA for improper conduct after comments made about Martin Atkinson and Keith Hackett. He was not punished. He is the only manager in the league that cannot be punished for these things.

    "Then he was talking about the fixtures. Two years ago we were playing a lot of early kick-offs away on Saturdays when United were playing on Sundays. And we didn't say anything. Now he is complaining about everything, that everybody is against United. But the second half of the season will see them playing at home against all the teams at the top of the table. It is a fantastic advantage.

    "But at Christmas, United played on the 29th and the rest of the teams played on the 28th. We were away against Newcastle two days after playing Bolton. They were playing about 40 hours later, they were not complaining then.

    "And about his behaviour with referees. The Southampton manager he knows how Mr Ferguson works and how he works, he was very clear. I am not playing mind games, just facts.

    "If he wants to talk about fixtures, and have a level playing field as you say in England. There are two options if we don't want more problems with fixtures. One is the same as in Spain, the draw for the first part of the league is known, everyone knows which weekend. In the second half everyone plays the opposite, so you all know. Sky and Setanta have the right to choose their games and it will be the same for everyone. So Mr Ferguson will not be complaining about fixtures and a campaign against United.

    "Or there is another option. That Mr Ferguson organises the fixtures in his office and sends it to us and everyone will know and cannot complain. That is simple.

    "We know what happens every time we go to Old Trafford and the United staff. They are always going man to man with the referees, especially at half-time when they walk close to the referees and they are talking and talking.

    "All managers need to know is that only Mr Ferguson can talk about the fixtures, can talk about referees and nothing happens.

    "We need to know that I am talking about facts, not my impression. There are things that everyone can see every single week.

    "Are they under pressure? Maybe they were not thinking that we would be at the top of the table in January. But we are at the top of the table and they are nervous.

    "I am not telling the authorities what to do. But I have been here for five years and know how things are going on. I will be watching United's game with Chelsea. The result does not matter to us, if we win at Stoke that result does not matter.

    "I was surprised United wanted to start the mind games too early, maybe it is because we are top of the table. But I only wanted to explain our position.

    "It is a massive difference to play early on a Saturday, say, after a European match in midweek. But they will play the second half of the season with home matches against the other top teams, and that is a massive advantage to them.

    "They cannot complain about the fixtures after they were playing on 29 December while the rest played on the 28th.

    "I have decided that I had a lot of information and I have been watching every single week what has been going on. Then they started talking about us, but every single week we know they will be talking. But we want to stay at the top and maybe they will talk about us right to the end.

    "To hear someone talking when he has problems with referees every single week, and now complaining about the fixtures and complaining about everything, I think that is not fair.

    "You can see every single week how they put [referees] under pressure, we know this. We have seen it before. We have seen players sent off at Old Trafford and we do not see our opponents sent off. It is part of the game. But to complain and to always have an advantage is not fair.

    "We had a meeting in Manchester with managers and FA about the Respect campaign. And I was very clear, forget the campaign because Mr Ferguson was killing the referees, killing Mr Atkinson, killing Mr Hackett. But he is not punished. How can you talk about the respect campaign and criticise the referee every single week? You can analyse the facts and come to your own decision and ideas."

    It is funny how Rafa got a lot of stick 3, almost 4, years ago for saying this but as time goes on it is actually spot on...

    Didn't Ferguson defend Newcastle after something Mancini said last year, saying something along the lines about Newcastle being one of the biggest clubs in England? Clearly he's just Wumming you.

    I don't know why we are talking about this for in 5 years time Fergie wont be on this planet and we will have forgotten about him, just like we should with this latest outburst.
    He is trying to get a reaction and the only thing I can see is that he made himself look foolish in the last 2 games with the things he has come out with, Man Utd are top of the league but every week his outbursts are getting more weirder, I really think his health is getting worse or his mind because at the moment this sounds like he has really lost his marbles.

    I think he really needs to retire before he ends up like Cloughie did in his last season at Forest and the man is starting to remind me of Cloughie when he was in his last season.

    Retire now Ferguson before you make an even bigger fool of yourself.

    Small club from the North-East apparently.

    What a load of dribble that man comes out with, and repeatably gets away with.

    Newcastle a wee club?..................only in the eyes of a wee minded old man.

    After his rant about Sunderland supporters and now this, who knows what is going on in that gnarled up little walnut that was once a brilliant brain.

    Rise above it toon fans - I wonder if this is Sir Alex's very public descent into senility.
