'Manchester United have been given an extreme advantage in the League fixtures - that's what we have to cope with.'Interesting. This being the same Arsene Wenger who earlier in the month said:
“When I saw Ferguson’s case about fixtures, we checked - because we are always curious. And he has a case"Hypocrite?
The main story today seems to be about Sir Alex's comments about invoking a rule allowing for replays to be dispensed with. A non-story if ever a saw one, won't waste time with it, see it here.
Some strange reporting on Sir Alex's comments on our defeat to Portsmouth in the FA cup last year, The Daily Mail headline is "United Boss Fergie finally confesses about Pompey defeat", claiming:
Sir Alex Ferguson has performed an amazing U-turn by admitting Manchester United had only themselves to blame for missing out on the Treble in losing last season's FA Cup quarter-final to Portsmouth.
He admitted: 'We knocked ourselves out really, because we missed six good chances.
However if one reads the Daily Star report this comment gets put into some sort of context:
“You look at that game and it hinged on the referee’s decision not to give us a penalty.Not quite a U-turn is it?
“But we knocked ourselves out because we missed six good chances. No question.”
