Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: Spud on Monday, February 27, 2006, 00:39:19 Im pretty sure he wasnt saying this when the Glazers first took over. :roll:
Sir Alex Ferguson was pleased to give the Glazer family their first trophy since they took over Manchester United. With three members of the Glazer family witnessing victory in Cardiff, Ferguson said: "I'm delighted for them, they have put a lot of money in. "I don't so much feel relief that we have won a trophy, more an assuredness in knowing we could win this cup. "Any trophy you win is important and we're delighted. We've been criticised but we've never devalued this cup." Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: oxford_fan on Monday, February 27, 2006, 01:53:24 a man trying to keep his job.
and a sign of man utd's slight downturn, that they now regard the league cup as something worth winning when 5 years ago they put out a reserve team in the semi's Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: Spud on Monday, February 27, 2006, 02:03:17 They put a reserve team out all the way in this comp until they got knocked out of the CL.
Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: McLovin on Monday, February 27, 2006, 09:10:21 I think that Fergie honestly likes winning stuff. The way he celebrates, him joining in the words to the sing-a-long afterwards... he gained some respect off me yesterday.
In contrast, Benitez's reaction to Harry Kewells goal reminded me just why i hate the boring cunt. Show some fucking passion ffs! Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: oxford_fan on Monday, February 27, 2006, 16:23:46 fergy looked like a little boy watching their first go in, classic.
he's a cunt but you cant fault his continued enthusiasm for the game Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: DMR on Monday, February 27, 2006, 22:16:33 Or the fact that he's arguably the most successful club manager ever
Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: reeves4england on Monday, February 27, 2006, 22:27:02 He's a good manager, but he gets on my tits
Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: yeo on Monday, February 27, 2006, 22:29:35 Hes got a Strawberry Nose so I like him.
Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: RobertT on Tuesday, February 28, 2006, 09:54:00 Isn't the hoo har about them having a bad season abit over hyped. I'm sure they are actually on their highest points tally since they renamed the top flight for the same number of games played? It's just that Chelsea won't let anyone else play with their ball.
Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: janaage on Tuesday, February 28, 2006, 10:51:22 He's going to be given a lot of money to compete with Chelsea this summer, according to the press today. Might make next year's race a little more interesting.
Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: Piemonte on Tuesday, February 28, 2006, 12:45:18 I doubt it if the rumours of Chelsea signing Shevchenko and Ballack in the summer are true.
Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: janaage on Tuesday, February 28, 2006, 13:02:41 Ballack - £121k a WEEK!!! Fuck me that's stupid money!! Problem is it'll all be paid to an offshore account so the tax man, and our country will see none of it!
Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Tuesday, February 28, 2006, 13:58:27 What would be the point in Chelsea signing Ballack, he's just a poor mans Lampard anyway.
Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: Spud on Tuesday, February 28, 2006, 15:58:20 Quote from: "Piemonte" I doubt it if the rumours of Chelsea signing Shevchenko and Ballack in the summer are true. Ive heard a fee of £10 million banded about for Shevchenko! :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: flammableBen on Tuesday, February 28, 2006, 16:48:53 Quote from: "janaage" He's going to be given a lot of money to compete with Chelsea this summer, according to the press today. Might make next year's race a little more interesting. If a lot of money's going to be given for team rebuilding they'd probably be better off cutting off ferguson and having a new start with a new manager. Fuck knows who though, I don't really keep track of all this top flight football stuff. Maybe they should put king in charge.

Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: STFC Village on Tuesday, February 28, 2006, 18:08:55 I don't understand your point DV :?
Half of those players have left, and only two have been signed under the Double-Glazier regime Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: DV on Tuesday, February 28, 2006, 18:19:37 Quote from: "STFC Village" I don't understand your point DV :? Half of those players have left, and only two have been signed under the Double-Glazier regime but Fergie signed them all....and to quote Rich, they are all pretty shit..... Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: STFC Village on Tuesday, February 28, 2006, 18:23:08 Well, Evra and Vidic are unproven as yet.....
All the others were bought before the potential "huge" investment from the Glazers. Best he could get on a budget? (With the exception of Veron, who was just a massive flop) Title: Alex Ferguson Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Tuesday, February 28, 2006, 18:23:09 Quote from: "DV85" Quote from: "STFC Village" I don't understand your point DV :?
