SIR Alex Ferguson is a power crazed old ....

[Pevenseagull]

don't know how to do a poll

a) A***hole
b) B****rd
c) C***
d) all of the above


I don't think that the 'Kick It Out Campaign' should be the target of protest as it's a paper tiger on a shoestring budget with a profile above it's abilities ..... However ....................... actually I can't be bothered with this ............... I just hate it and it makes me sick

................. I'm warming to Ferdinand as he ends the end of his career but Ferguson should shut the f*** up and let his nose explode

 

[Barn Door Billy]

I despise the red nosed jock. He is a vile creature. I dislike Ferdinand too, he is a whinging baby (this is due to his strop wen he was left out of the England team and comments to cole on twitter, NOT the racism stuff)

yep, but he's getting better ............ bit like Michael Portillo now chatting about train journeys

 

[Beach Hut]

A lot of people resent success

 

[sydney]

without doubt the most successful manager in recent history (20 yrs). unlikeable maybe but he should be given credit where it is due.

imo all those refusing to wear the kick it out t-shirts have underminded the cause. its trying to do something of the issue, but ultimatly has no power or authority, only publicity. so if this is how those players feel, they are saying the campaign should stop, pack up and go. not that the boycotters have an alternative. and from Ferdinand with his "choc ice" comment, its very bitter.

if Ferguson has a view on the campaign and he wants his employees to follow that, i really dont see why he shouldnt be pissed that a senoir player has undermined the cause.

Why should they have to follow what he thinks? Ferdinand is a grown man and entitled to his own opinion. Kick It Out is partly funded by the FA, Premier League and PFA. The FA whilst 'supporting' the campaign handed a 4 game ban to someone who racially abused his brother, the same FA demanding tough sanctions against the Serbs.

I've just read that Lescott hasn't worn a Kick It Out t-shirt since 2007 after Yobo suffered abuse, that Swansea and Wigan chose not to wear the t-shirts and Ferdinand is likely to face a £220,000 fine for not wearing his t-shirt, the same amount Terry was fined for racially abusing Anton.

Ferguson is a ****.

Ferdinand with his "choc ice" comment, its very bitter.

Ferdinand didn't make that comment - another footballer did and he laughed about it.

 

[Marxo]

Ferdinand responded: "I hear you fella! Choc ice is classic. Hahahahahaha!!" He later deleted the tweet and claimed on Twitter that it was slang for someone being "fake", but the FA charged him with making improper comments that included a reference to ethnic origin and/or colour and/or race.

I think he was agreeing as well as laughing as did the FA.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

So all it takes to kick racism out of football is to wear a tee-shirt?

 

[vegster]

Its all getting very confusing now, however there seems to an almost constant re-cycling of stupidity involving 3 main players, it always seems to be Ferdinand,Terry and Cole who end up doing something stupid, controversial or both. Grow up, man up, shut up and just get on with your day jobs please.

 

[El Presidente]

I thought the T shirt was to raise awareness.

We did plenty of awareness raising for the stadium, don't think it did much harm.

Yes, it's amazing what the debate has been reduced to.

 

[Flavor Flav]

I like Fergie, one of the best managers of all time. Ferdinand made him look stupid. If your manager wants you to do something you do it in my opinion.

 

[8ace]

Ferdinand is an overrated footballer and CAUC.

 

[piersa]

Absolutely, he has almost single handedly wiped out discrimination in the western world.

 

[The Spanish]

thats alright then.

anyone defending him on all this is mad or a try hard liberal. he is turning very nasty and combine that with his stupidity (and also the hypocrisy considering his predoiminately white family background) and you have a poisonous mix. somke people on here are so confused and scared about this issue they are like norman wisdom stucj in a revolving door, trying desperately to find the right way.

make ferguson 100% right. just because his brother was called a bad name does not mean he is eternally beyond reproach. people arent thinking about this. this KIO boycott is about exercising power rather than any genuine beliefs in its effectiveness. its very very transparent if you arent scared to think about it.

normally at work if you dont follow the bosses guidance, you'll expect to be reprimanded for it. we say players think they are special above everyone else including the club, but then you are saying they can unilaterally defy thier bosses intrusctions. whatever. as for the ban, the FA gave the ban what more do you want? 10 game, a season?

at the end of the day, seems alot of people knocking a campaign without offering any alternative.
