Rio is apparantley being guarded by 6 ex SAS men fo rthe visit to Leeds on Saturday. Whats the chances we drop the whole defence and kit out the SAS men instead, balaclava's n'all!

Seriously though, its scary to think he needs that kind of protection being a footballer. The Sheep should GET A feckING LIFE!

Did you read the whole story?

Apparently Man Utd retain the 6 SAS staff for all games involving Leeds, Liverpool, and Man City.

Hmmm...who has the chip on their shoulders? Seems the Man Utd board have a persecution complex against nearly all teams.
 
I remember when "The Cantona Incident" happened and Ned Kelly followed him of the pitch aswell i seen him twice in Manchester in the space of a week and Ned was with him both times.Scary Predicament being threatened i would guess and United have to protect there investments.

Thursdays Manchester Evening News:

"...United, who were reported to be deploying six ex-SAS men from the SPS firm who steward the United matches on the team coach, say secruity for the match is in Leeds' hands."

"...We are treating it like any other game and we are confident that Leeds and the local police will do a good job and ensure the team has a safe passage in and around the Stadium."
