This is true. His jealousy has got the better of him.
I can see why people believe the tabloid press, who have such a reputation for truth, and for never fabricating a story, or exaggerating.
Fergie is losing his mind
- Thread starter Arsenal
- Start date

Are they fabricating Demento's quotes?

Probably not
He says it like it is
The journos are fecking idiots - we all know that
In fairness its hard to defend the Veron signing..
I reckon Demento did pretty well..

Gives the papers something to write about
And you can talk about your pet subject, Manchester United

I think he's great
And the manager that's one the most trophies in the English game - ever

My mistake. I thought it was just the Daily Mirror.
I haven't seen the incident, so I don't know what the questions were, or how it was handled.
As I already said, Fergie can be embarrassing. He also has a temper, which might be better vented in private. Plenty of times I've cringed about things he has said in public.</strong><hr></blockquote>
I'd say it was handled very, very well...
Fergie is a very emotional man. Not a bad thing. He doesn't seem to care what other people think.
I respect him a lot for what he's achieved. There are times when I like him a lot - he can often come across as a really nice man. I don't like the side I see when he's angry. It doesn't always put the club in a good light.

It reminds me of Keegan's outburst when he lost the plot...
AEBM is right.
These outbursts come from passion. The passion is good, the outbursts may not be - but that's the way it is.
It was the same with Keegan. Everyone took the mickey out of him after what happened, and understandably - but it was only because he cared a lot.

The great thing with it is that he manages to transfer this passion into his teams and players.
Someone once said that a team is the mirror image of their manager, and you can certainly see that in the Man United team.
Long may his outbursts continue, they've stood us good for more than a decade now

I wish his public image could be seen as a bit more honest tho.
Do you reckon the pressure of the job is getting to him?
Hence his embarrassing outburst....

Can't remember a recent one as bad as this..
Is it a coincidence that it has occured at a time when failure looks to be on the horizon, after he's just spent a fortune...
And been "outfoxed" by Wenger in the mind game stakes..
Could this be the reason for his mad man rantings?

I thought the outburst was aimed at the journos and not at Wenger..?

Does it matter who it was aimed at?
I'm talking about the reasons behind his girly outburst....
The media don't seem to have such a powerful affect on him when you're doing well!
It seems the pressure of losing is linked with him losing it...

What are you laughing at now?
He refused to speak to them at first this year as well didn't he?
I wonder why?
Perhaps its because he knew he couldn't handle them without keeping his cool...
Due to the fact that he's as mad as a cut snake..</strong><hr></blockquote>
Or because he thinks they are a bunch of hypocrites?
Sir Alex done well for a mad man though
At least he doesn't come out with things like: "Our 10 games to glory" and "The players are my heroes"

Ahhhh
Here come the predictable change of subject..
I'll take that to mean that you agree with me that Demento is going around the bend, and thus your need to talk about something else..
"He's a feckin great player"

As opposed to a 'magnificent' one
<img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" /> @ fergie, what a clown. I hope they've got this recorded on tv. how embarrassing.....
A constructed defense to well placed criticism of his £28,000,000 man?
Nah
swearing, denial & insults
Mr popular does it again......

Pressure can lead to a short temper and a failure to control oneself..
Apparantly..
Thats why I reckon he lost the plot and behaved in such a childish manner..

As I said before, he's had outbursts like this throughout his career
He's done rather well though
In fact better than anyone else in the English game - ever

When was the last time he had an outburst in the public eye where he swore his head off and ended up looking like a park vagrant?
Not including this latest embarrassment, of course..
Fergie = 8 Ace
