Daddy Fergie helps baby Fergie again

None of them were 'from' Chelsea though. Hadn't they all been released and signed as free agents? Bridcutt has been on trails at other places before we got him.

Okay, my point is I expect he used his contacts at Chelsea for recommendations and/or to help the deals go through.

Regardless of specific examples, though, I don't expect any of us would complain if suddenly we signed an incredible player thanks to Gus's 'Uncle Pedro' who manages Montevideo United.

My dad would help me out, why can't this guy's dad help him?

Blood is thicker than water, why not?

Last season alone, Man U loaned players out to Premier League, Championship, League 1 and League 2 clubs. There's no conspiracy here, please move on

Two Man Utd youngsters being loaned out to Posh by the looks of things. I'm assuming Fergie senior loans out players to other clubs or is it just to Fergie junior?

Not a conspiracy - but a third one this morning - Nicky Ajose. Peterborough seem to have a decent feeder club!
