Did he unleash a wave of obscenities at the media then as well?
Or is it fair to say that this recent shameful affair is something of a one off?

So it's the fact that he swore that you're focusing on now?
I wouldn't know, but I'm very sure he's told journalist to feck off before.

It's about time somebody told the press to feck off in no uncertain terms, bunch of lying immoral wankers the lot of them. Fergie is spot on, the media is a scourge on society - burn em, burn em all I say!!!
I can fully understand Fergie losing his rag with them, the rubbish about Veron has gone on all season and they are now producing complete and utter fiction. That walk out story was the last straw, a complete lie. If the press use the power and responsibility they have been given without respect or decency to the truth, then they are a bunch of "fecking idiots" and can feck off as far as I'm concerned!</strong><hr></blockquote>
Funny thing is, it's the Scousers that are talking about it. I would have thought they would have agreed more than anyone that the press are twats..

Normally that's no problem for critize but if it came to the point that media made up a false story to try to unsettle our team, that's just unforgivable. So I can understand why Fergie is so angry about it. If he didn't deny the false report quickly and strongly, it will lower team's moral or even false unsettlement may become real.
But one things seems very clear now: Veron will definitely remain in the team next season. Now seems the right time for United fans to stop any endless discussion about Veron's future.</strong><hr></blockquote>
All the manager's of top clubs have to deal with speculation re their players moving on/being targets for other clubs/scandals etc etc etc...
As far as I know "He's a fecking great player" isn't often used as an answer?
Perhaps the pressure's getting to him...
Good news about Veron tho...

All managers have their own ways
As far as I'm aware not many managers keep saying his players were 'magnificent' after every single game.

Its the change of subject again...

Its the pressure I reckon..
Thats why he's swearing and screaming like an old bag lady...

Probably his way to get it out, not let the pressure build up inside him
Has worked well throughout his career - in which he has won more trophies than any other managers in England

Do you think he's taught the press a lesson?
All he's done is given them ammunition to fire straight back at him, which they will do...
They'll portray him as mad man..
Which will be even easier to do now..

Do you think if he continues to make big money signings that don't work/fail to win anything, these 5 year old like rants will continue?

Continue? If you bother to look, Sir Alex' record with big money signings is very good.
No team can expect to win silverware EVERY season - I'm sure Sir Alex is as aware of that as anyone else.
I think Sir Alex track record as a manager is fairly good, don't you?

Thats not nothing to so with the current situation tho has it?
28 million wasted on a White Elephant..
No trophies barring a miracle..
Hence the stress which has caused him to act like a fool..

A similar ratio as Demento's odds of winning an award for services to the press association..
feckin nutter that he is..
"We are going to look at other ways now of addressing this problem because it has gone on for too long and is undermining everybody, not just Seba, but the team as a whole. That is not acceptable" Kenyon told the Manchester Evening News today.
"We will keep our powder dry on our plans but inaccurate stories of the nature we read at the weekend have just got to be stopped because there is nothing further from the truth."
"There is nothing to indicate Juan Veron won't be a Manchester United player next season, either from the club or from the player."
"We are not going to stand for it any more. These stories are just wildly inaccurate. You have to believe there are concerted efforts by people outside of United to unsettle Juan Veron and it is unsettling. Nobody needs that."
"Seba is a world class player. He has demonstrated that to us on occasions. I have no doubt he will be one of the main players coming out of the World Cup. He is absolute quality."
"What is undermining is the continual focus on him wanting to go and not being happy. Nothing could be further from the truth. He's had reassurances from everybody that this is not a Manchester United issue. This is starting somewhere else. We have, and will continue, to reassure him about his future here from a club point of view."

Do you think the press that made up pure lie will dare to fire back?
It's a right time for Fergie to be hard. This time the press said Veron burst up with the majority of the team, if we stay silent next time they may just say that Veron try to murder Keano but unsuccessful!
As I have said. People can critize us, but telling complete lie is unforgivable.

Of course they will!
This stuff happens all the time, why is this case any different. Papers always make stuff up, or print rumours from their sources that don't turn out as they say.
after all these years surely Ferguson knows this? it's never going to change. Take a peek at the papers today and you'll see how they nearly all have made hay on Ferguson's outburst saying Wengers has won the war of wills/Fergies lost the plot etc
I very much doubt that he's a popular man amongst the press and thus they will be loving every minute of this, milking it for all it's worth.

You have your point, and I also agree with it... but... it seems you'd better open another thread, rather than following up in this thread which seems have become concentrated on discussing Fergie's reaction to the media....</strong><hr></blockquote>
I was just reflecting on the quote. The quote also says that it has been unsettling, and that Veron has needed reassurances from the club that its not coming from them. Suppose that the players haven't all blamed Veron (which would be unlike them), then its understandable that Veron would be getting a bit paranoid by now, and the whole squad unsettled by this. Its not the first story suggesting this sort of bust up, there was the 'Keano had him by the throat' stories not long ago. While the saying is 'There's no smoke without fire', with the tabloids it is often them that is the fire. Alex and the club should know this, and take it in its stride, and normally they would, so I think that the effect of these stories must be quite severe. Either the press are causing Veron to seriously consider leaving and the club/SAF are worried about this, or, team morale is being heavily dented by the accusations. None of which bodes well for tomorrow night's game. <img src="graemlins/nervous.gif" border="0" alt="[Nervous]" />
