Still don't get the criticism of Ferguson when the things people don't like are more to do with the weakness of others. Just typical British attitude to success I suppose. I would love to have a bully like him creating a dynasty at QPR......
He's not responsible for they way the media respond to Utd. Of course he puts pressure on officials, he's just better at it than say, Warnock's approach of screaming and swearing like a demented old witch. If refs and the PL are scared of Utd their weak characters rather than Fergie's ambition to keep this Frankenstein's monster going are to blame. He has created a leviathan at Utd that the rest of English football revolves around - a brilliant job from their perspective, a pathetic response from the rest of us, and I agree, a tragedy for competitiveness in the premiership. But Bayern are very similar in Germany, which in all other respects is a much better run system.
At least its all pretty transparent, unlike the corruption recently in Italy and latterly in France.
