Duncan 'disorderly' Ferguson always used to crack me up.

But Kris Musampa is fecking genius.

Berbatov wins golden boot, spends following season on the bench while his team loses title on goal difference. Well played, Fergie.

I always thought Razor Ruddock was a decent nickname
"If we fire our manager after just one bad season - We'll become Chelsea"
"If we think we can fix the problem by buying expensive players - We'll become City"
"If we remember the good times to entertain us during the bad times - We'll become Liverpool"

So, keep calm and do it the United way

"We invest in young players, That is what we are good at — we’re not like other clubs who can spend fortunes on proven goods. We know that Manchester City are going to pay stupid money, pay silly salaries and all that. We can’t do anything about it. We concentrate on what we can do to try to bring players in for the right reasons. We invest in those who will be with the club for a long time, who will create the character of the club, who will create excitement for our fans. We are very proud of that and we are going to continue that way" - Alex Ferguson 14th May 2012

That's not nice, he spoke very highly of you. Mind you he spoke highly of everyone...

One Size is an all time classic.

I'm loving Neil 'Disa' Poynton - hadn't heard that despite watching him play. I remember loving him cos he'd try and kill someone every game.

Needles Empenze and Kris Musampa are pure inspired City genius. I quite liked Quinninho at the time, as a comedy antidote to the Brazilians.
