I just find it amazing that Ferguson of all people lectures others on this subject.

Its like Hitler accusing Chamberlain of being anti-semitic.

(You started it with the Gestapo response)

Ferguson stop winning? You've been waiting and will continue to wait a long time for that. Only his retirement will stop him winning imo.

EXCLUSIVE: Ferguson: I was talking about Newcastle's lack of trophies, not the Toon Army, when I made the 'wee club' comment

Sir Alex Ferguson claims he has received backing from many Toon Army members following his controversial comment that Newcastle United is a 'wee club in the North East'.

 

The Manchester United manager revealed that, among many emails he received about the issue from fans of the Tyneside club, several welcomed what he said.

 

'Among the criticism there were also messages from people who feel they have been let down by the club and that it has not matched their own ambitions for success,' he said.

 

Ferguson has sought to exclude Newcastle supporters from his observations last week, insisting that they were directed only at the club's lack of success over the years - a failure compounded by their 2-0 defeat at Championship side Brighton in the third round of the FA Cup.

 

The Scot, who celebrated his 71st birthday on New Year's Eve, clashed with Alan Pardew after the Newcastle manager commented that Ferguson had been fortunate to escape FA censure following his confrontation with Mike Dean and his assistant Jake Colin, after the referee reversed a decision to disallow a Newcastle goal during the fiery 4-3 battle at Old Trafford on Boxing Day.

 

The FA chose to take no action because Dean did not include the incidents in his referee's report on the game.

 

The United manager sparked a storm of anger in Newcastle when he hit back at Pardew, saying: 'The problem for me and Manchester United is that the profile of the club is huge. I'm the manager of the biggest club in the world. I'm not like Newcastle, a wee club in the North-East.'

 

Now Ferguson wants to heal any possible rift with Newcastle fans. 'It was never my intention to belittle Newcastle fans,' he said.

 

'I want to clear up any misunderstanding that may have arisen over what I said. I have nothing but the highest regard for Newcastle fans and I always have had. They are up there with the best supporters in the game. Their passion, commitment and fervour have never wavered, even though they have had little to celebrate.

 

'They have turned up in numbers to get behind their team wherever and whenever the games have been played. When I take a team to St James' Park, I have stressed to the players that not only have they got to beat the opposition on the field, just as important is coping with the atmosphere created by the fans.

 

'Sadly, results have not matched their loyalty. If Newcastle's achievements had matched the support of the people who pay to watch them play, the club would be among the game's giants. It's tragic that they haven't been able to win a league title for over eighty years.'

 

It was United's barnstorming finish to the 1995-96 season, when they won nine out of their last 11 matches, that denied Newcastle the league title, after Kevin Keegan's team was 12 points clear at the end of February.

 

The following season they again finished as runners-up. Ferguson said: 'The whole country would like to see a Newcastle team that matched the one in the Keegan era when they took us to the wire.'

How the fuck do you email him btw? :lol:

I'd love to send a well articulated insightful e-mail to him about his behaviour demeaning his success as a manager and cause a change in his character for the better.

Alas I'd probably descend to numerous expletives and other juvenile insults
