25 - Blatter on Rooney / O'Shea, Fletcher contracts / United abandon casino plans
Tonight's entry wasn't at all impressed by the chicken nuggets from Supreme Fish tonight.
It took a while, but Fergie breaks a long run of talking nonsense by slagging off Sepp Blatter. Absolutely spot on. I managed to hear a little bit of Blatter's performance on Five Live last night and it was every bit as watered down a session of questions as you'd expect. No hard questions at all just a long line of rubbish about goal-line technology and the suchlike. Oh, and him talking complete shit about Wayne Rooney.
I think it's absolutely appalling that a man who yields as much power as he does, completely underservedly, can be allowed to make comments where he suggests that a teenager should go and see a shrink. That's none of his fucking business. This cunt has carte blanche to make whatever ridiculous comments that he wants, not to mention push through the most utterly pointless and ridiculous legislation and he doesn't have to answer to anyone. Ferguson is spot on with his riposte but his questions won't be answered because Blatter is an imbecile of the highest order, and you know that there is something unquestionably wrong with a sport when a person like him is allowed to become its absolute leader.
Equally good a riposte came from Gordon Taylor here. This man just needs to fuck off out of football as soon as is humanly possible.
************************
Despite question marks hanging over both of their respective careers for one reason or another, I still think it's good to see United extended the contracts of John O'Shea and Darren Fletcher. Given immense responsibility in a Scotland shirt, Fletcher has given his best performances to date playing for Scotland. Although quiet and lacking in physical power, Fletcher's thriving on responsibility would suggest that Ferguson might do well to take him to one side and implore him to take more domestic games by the scruff of the neck in the manner of which he did so brilliantly for his country on Wednesday night.
As for O'Shea, well, he's reliant on Ferguson stopping fannying about with him and giving him a solid position to finally grow into. I still think his best position would be central midfield and it's baffling to me that Ferguson hasn't tried him there yet this season despite the pressure he justifiably put on him as a substitute away to Arsenal last season.
Mind you, it's funny to hear Ferguson prizing youth so much yet currently so reluctant to blood it, even in the Carling Cup last year.
*************************
The big question for me is - how much did we already spend on this project? That would certainly be interesting to find out. I personally see a planned super-casino as a potential Millennium Dome 2, so it's just as well they abandoned this plan when they did.
But United can't afford to be arsing around wasting money on projects that may or may not come to fruition. Plus, you'd never get Fergie out of the bloody thing.
I'm off to post turds to Sepp Blatter. Registered post.
