There there, Fergie
Some of the nonsense these football people come out with.
Manchester United average 75,000 fans every home game. These quotes come from www.espnstar.com and are after the 2-2 draw with Arsenal.
Ferguson believes it can be difficult for referees not to be influenced by hostile home crowds.
"It is very difficult for the referee," he said. "On our bench, we were getting terrible abuse from people two or three feet away from us."
"There is a lack of security here. It is absolutely disgraceful the abuse you and your staff take. All sorts of things are been shouted and screamed at you and there is an absolute danger here."
Dear, sweet Sir Alex, have you never ever heard the chants from your own baying masses aimed at Arsene Wenger? Have you ever stood up and condemned them? Have you ever heard Arsene himself complain about them?
I could then go on about the old days on the away terrace at Old Trafford where the more moronic members of your support in the seats just above us would gleefully throw all manner of shit in our direction while the Greater Manchester Police and the ordinary, decent supporter did nothing.
Let's face it, the record books are filled to overflowing with penalties given to the away team at your haven of solitude aren't they? Wasn't it 10 years or so between spot kicks?
Anyway if the ref was such a homer why didn't we get that penalty?
United of course have never known a referee at theirs to be influenced by hostile crowds, as if.
For a great manager he doesn't half come out with some tired old twaddle that is both infantile and insulting.
