Would someone like to clarify what he seems to think Pardew should owe him for, what this 'all I've done for him' stuff is about? Is it along the lines of how Sunderland should have been grateful for being allowed to give Man U money for their has-beens and cast-offs?

Don't dare blaspheme the name of Sir Alex, we should be grateful he has spoken our name with his blessed lips. If a manager of such stature spoke of Man U in such a manner, lo they would accept his sage advice and constructive criticism and use it to better themselves such that they may bask in his divine light, and we so too should strive for such humble humility under his glory.

Man U revel in the idea that their status gives them preferential treatment and lets them get away with stuff other teams wouldn't, they see it as a sign of how big a club they are - hence the "We're Man United, we do what we want" chants.

31, how about you? You get this about players like Suarez "Oh, you'd like him if he was scoring goals for you guys" Yeah, and the majority of everyone else would still hate him, including the Liverpool fans who currently adore him - and for exactly the same reasons.

Ironically, if he managed Liverpool, Chelsea or Man City, Man U fans would f***ing despise him and think he was the most odious c*** in the game. What a stupid childish reply to a correct comment are you really an administrator for this site OK then, please do explain, how would Man U fans react if Alex Ferguson was the manager of another club and behaved on the touchline like he did yesterday, spoke in the press about other clubs, players and referees the way 'Fergie' gets to with a free pass from the FA and the press? They'd treat him with a hushed reverence?

Ironically, if he managed Liverpool, Chelsea or Man City, Man U fans would fucking despise him and think he was the most odious cunt in the game.

I still daydream about this happening to this day - imagine an open top parade with a 46 year old Robert Lee and Warren Barton holding up the 96 Premier League trophy

Only last month Lambert was fined and banned for one match for "Language and/or behaviour amounting to improper conduct". Makes a mockery of it if Fergie gets away with worse. Same kind of thing with Wolves being fined for feilding an understrength team when Arsenal are allowed to do it every single game of every Carling Cup campaign.

Acting like a brat, berating officials, being a sore loser, ignoring the rules of the game = "Passion" Talking rubbish, losing his rag, making bullshit excuses = "Mind games" No other manager gets this type of pass.

Even after he took offence at the idea he couldn't tackle and came out with this

One thing is for sure, it'll be very interesting to see how Man U fans deal with not having him in charge, some of them for the first time in their lvies.

A bit like Suarez as a player, you can't really tell how succesful he'd be without being an arsehole and attempting to manipulate things to his advantage all the time. If he hadn't won those titles, other manager/s would have, possibly without being a poisonous, negative influence on the game and the league.

Most of his daily being-a-prick duties involve what he does as a manager. He might be a decent person, I dunno because I pretty much always see him in his professional role. But no, I have no respect for him as a manager at all.

Haha, just seen this - fat fingers

Yesterday was just the latest recent proof that being awarded an hour by the Queen actually makes you more likely to be a horrible twat.

Back to the actual game, enjoyed people shouting out "Could have killed him man" and "He's lucky to be alive after that" after every slightly dodgy tackle and even after hand balls

There's stuff in football that regularly crosses the line, but surely a word like 'disgrace' to describe managers, supporters, clubs, tackles, referees and players is probably one of the most used words in the game and something that would rarely cause genuine upset to all but the most thin-skinned fans.

Shocking to see the likes of yourself come out with that Bluestar. How come? I've spent the last two decades berating adoptive Man U fans online and in reality, it shouldn't come as that much of a shock. Yes, there are followers of other clubs who have decided to follow them for whatever reason, but Man U's entire business model is based on bandwagon jumpers and their 'global brand'. And which other team has had such a sustained period of trophy winning and success that an entire generation of people can't have started watching them when they were in the doldrums? Show up on another team's forum as a Man U fan from Ireland, Spain or London posting photos of Fergie grinning after his performance today and I don't know exactly what you expect the response to be. I can't imagine it would be different on any other board. I posted a picture of Alex Ferguson in a thread called Alex Ferguson. It was mainly to joke with Wormy, who will have taken absolutely no offence to it, as he's capable of banter. If that picture is what annoyed you there's problems there like. I'll remove it if it's so terrible to you. I know this is a Newcastle forum, but Alex Ferguson is iconic to me, and I've sat there and watched him being torn apart on this forum without any sort of retaliation but a picture of him. Is that really so horrific? I was getting plenty of abuse before that picture as well. So don't pick that as the main reason for your berating. I'm not annoyed in the slightest, the people who are annoyed are those who are some how baffled that an Irish Man U fan will be getting stick for being a glory hunter on another team's forum after a game like that. I don't think the Fergie picture is any more or less 'banter' than the stick you get for the team you picked, it's exactly to be expected. Fergie is to managers what Joey Barton, Craig Bellemy or Luis Suarez is to players, if he's on your team I think you'll love him no matter what he does, to anyone else he's a prick.

Who did you support in the Olympics Froggy, the US or China?

League will be better off once he's gone, one way or another. You got back pretty quick from the match, by the way.

I don't really moan that our fans are an embarrassment. I accept that a lot of them are, but just ask that you respect that a lot of them are not. Define 'a lot' as a percentage.

Redcafe is a completely accurate depiction of the kind of team Man U are though, and Fergie is like all RC posters combined. You can't set yourselves up as a global franchise team, take all the benefits of that and moan when your fans, players and manager are an embarrassment.

Fergie is such a cunt, are there any managers that come out with more cringeworthy stuff? The league will be much better off without him.
