I see that Alex Ferguson is off again, whingeing about the referee in last night's game against Birmingham. The fact is, he may well be right, it certainly looked to me, on the TV highlights, that there was an element of handball involved in Birmingham's equaliser, but does Sir Alex not realise that this is all part of 'the beautiful game' ?
Of course he does and I've yet to hear him say a word when his own players are guilty of similar acts. Football is now a high-pressured game in which cheating is the norm and winning is all; criticising referees is simply part of the background pressure that men like Ferguson try to apply in the hope that they'll get more favourable treatment than their opponents.
I have news for you, Sir Alex; the more you whinge, the less sympathy you'll receive. Have you never heard of the "boy who cried 'Wolf !'" ?
