    The only manager that seems to get any favours

    from Sir Alex is Paul Sturrock, Scot connection I guess. He doesnt even let the Manx youth out to Peterboro, and Im told by a Man U season ticket holder that the youth production line has dried up at Old Trafford, bar maybe one or two that have already got fixed up on loan. They've announced their Champions League squad, not sure if Wellbeck and Macheda are in it, but if they are, no chance of them going out.

    Arsenal is where to look, umpteen available. We shouldve got Tony Adams as manager.

    Ferguson and Barnsley

    He's done us a few good deals over the years, apparently because his brother played for us in the 1960s.

    Was mentioned in his programme notes when we played them

    that he had a "soft spot" for us and his brother played for us.

    There's a Dundee United connection with them two

    Not quite sure what it is though.

    Man Utd youngsters aren't all they're cracked up to be, look at Rich Jones and Eckersley.

    Nardiello on the other hand . . . . . . . world beater!

    Yes they are. I read quotes from Davey somewhere saying he'd discussed players and management with Sir Alex while over dinner once. He obviously took no notice when they were talking about management.
