He will be up for it. I think he will have the cheque book out in the summer and he will be buying one or two players. I think they need one or two in certain positions then they will be back up there. It's good for the game that Arsenal are now challenging United at the very highest level. You have three units within the team - defence, midfield and your forwards. You hope that they will all function properly at the same time and on a regular basis. Arsenal were a little bit iffy defensively at the beginning of the season but as it has progressed the defence has got better and better. Earlier in the season they did not play particularly well but they still kept a clean sheet and scored goals to win games. United didn't have that solidity defensively. So when they went through a bad period prior to Christmas they were getting beaten playing poorly. But then they went on a wonderful run that ! took them right up there. It could now go to the last game of the season - and that's with United having a really bad season." --------------------------------- [42] Excerpts from Fergie press conference --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: >From the Mirror, who say that 'Fergie has lost the plot' - when we'd hint it has more >to do with putting up with a load of sh*te on a Bank Holiday Monday after still >hurting from last week. QUESTION: You said you felt there had been a certain arrogance in the way Arsenal were saying they'd already won the title? FERGIE: "I'm not getting involved in that because you just want a f****** story as usual. I'm not getting involved in that. Your f****** stuff is a disgrace to journalism and you are. The stuff you f****** come out with. Q: What? FERGIE: "You're always f****** going on about this club. Always. Q: It's our job to cover this club. Fergie: "Och, you're a joke." Q: Name one story...? FERGIE: "Listen, you've been going on about f****** Veron. You tell me what's wrong with Veron? Q: We're not the only ones. FERGIE: "You are, you're the worst. Q: Veron just hasn't played very well. FERGIE: "Well, I think he has. What's this thing about fights and all the rest of this s***?" Q: So we can't talk about individual players? Will Veron play on Wednesday? FERGIE: "I've no picked the team yet." Q: What about accusations he had a bust-up, is not going to play again and is going home? FERGIE: "That's been answered." Q: The fans would be interested in what you had to say. FERGIE: "It's absolute nonsense, you know it's nonsense. Absolute lies. I can't believe you write these things. Anyway, that's finished. On you go." Q: You wouldn't talk generally about Veron... FERGIE: "On you go. I'm no f****** talking to you. He's a f****** great player. Yous are f****** idiots." --------------------------------- [41] Choccy on two youngsters --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: John O'Shea (not in Ireland squad) and Michael Stewart “I think that’s there for them if they keep working hard every day. John O’Shea has done that this season, but Michael’s been on the fringe of things, too. Michael and John wouldn’t be here in the first place if they didn’t have a chance of playing for United. From the start of next season the manager will again look at everybody and I’m sure he’ll be looking closely at John and Michael. The new contracts were all they needed to give them confidence and show them that so many people hold them in high regard. Michael can take a lot from things this season. He’s now played for Scotland and has done ever so well for them and he’s got a great chance of going on tour with them when they go to the Far East. Not only will that help him improve football-wise, but experience and reputation wise too he will be a better player for it." --------------------------------- [40] cuddly Pete - no wage caps --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: “There is no doubt about it, some of the big clubs are starting to talk about wage caps. But it’s not going to work. The ultimate capping is each club deciding how much of its revenue it’s going to pay in wages.” --------------------------------- [39] David James on United's financial strength --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: “You are trying to keep up with the Joneses. United have taken everybody by storm. Their money-making machine is in a league of its own. They can fund the players they bring in on their merchandising money only.” --------------------------------- [38] 5-a-side tournament --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: EUROWORLD TRAVEL 2nd Annual Manchester United Supporters 5 a'side Tournament to be held once again at 'Blackpool' Saturday 6th July £75 per team for an application form please call 01253 300250 or e'mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------- [37] Cuddly Pete says Veron will stay --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "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." --------------------------------- [36] Cuddly Pete on Veron lies --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "We are not going to stand for it anymore. 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. We want to squash that once and for all. It is not doing any good to anyone. Seba now understands the immense media attention when you come to Manchester United more so than any other country and any other club really. 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. 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." --------------------------------- [35] Fergie speaking to MUTV --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: from the official site Ready for Arsenal "Leverkusen was disappointing. You have to depend on the players' character to get over it. We've got a massive game on Wednesday - we want to win the match and take it to the final game of the season which would be fantastic drama for the League. We'll have done our best then. "Last Tuesday was the biggest game of the season. In the situation we're in, we hoped that Arsenal would have dropped just two points, drawn one game, to allow us the opportunity to win the League. If that had happened this would be the bigest game of the season. But they have the cushion and we've done our best. Our run-in has been good, but Arsenal have won all their games, so credit to them. They're in top form and you can't deny them that." Arsenal's form "I don't think we've handed it to Arsenal. If you win your last eleven games you deserve to win the League, and I don't think they've lost a goal in the last five games - that's Championship form. "They'll come here and show their normal aggression and they'll try to win. They'll be positive. It's up to us to make sure they don't win the League here. We need to keep the whole thing bubbling along." Players ready The players will be wanting to make up for last week's disappointment. That's the great thing about football - they always have the next game to do that. They have enough character and determination to overcome the disappointment of last week. The fans will help, too. It should be a great atmosphere on Wednesday." United's form "Our form has been good, I've had no problems with that. The semi-final was unusual - when you play Germans you have to get used to the continuity of the game being broken up, it's stop start stop start. We should have done better though. "We're always looking to improve ourselves, but next season we won't have the early season form we showed this season. You can rest assured of that." Bringing people in? "We're always looking to strengthen, sometimes it's from within. Players develop and break through, and sometimes you have to go out and buy. We've not been a big buying club over the years, we've been sensible." Veron stories "It's rubbish, it's lies from the press and I don't know why they're doing this. We're taking legal advice. I don't like the persistence of these stories. I know the press have a difficult job but the truth seems to be a foreign item to them. There's no foundation in these stories. "I think Seba's done fine, I've been pleased with his form. It's been a press thing that he's struggled." Fergie's horse winning the 2,000 Guineas. "It was great, very pleasing. It's a different atmosphere, no pressure. It's different from football - that's built up with the tension and the adreneline releases at final whistle. On Saturday when the horse won it was just unbridled emotions." --------------------------------- [34] Pre season match confirmed --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: play Chesterfield on 27th July 2002. --------------------------------- [34] Fergie hits back at Arsenal --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: “I’m not talking about Arsenal’s arrogance. You can write about that. That’s your job. If you cover football, then talk about their arrogance. Not me.” --------------------------------- [33] ABUs don't want to know --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: when Utd aren't playing. Only 6.3m watched the FA Cup Final on BBC on Saturday --------------------------------- [32] Fergie on tomorrow --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "We'll have the same squad as we had last week. We're looking forward to Wednesday, it's the kind of game second from the end of the season that really means something. We're looking forward to it. It should be a terrific game. We just have to do our job. If we win it takes it to the last game of the season and it's very exciting for the League. At that point we can sit back. But the most important thing is that we have to win Wednesday's game." --------------------------------- [31] Quote of the day --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: >From Fergie's press conference "Listen, you have been going on about f****** Veron. You tell me what's wrong with Veron?" It's [the alleged argument] absolute nonsense, you know it's nonsense. Absolute lies. He's [Veron] a f****** great player. You are f****** idiots." --------------------------------- [30] More Fergie on Veron story --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "These stories are rubbish. It's lies. I don't know why people are doing it and we have taken legal advice." --------------------------------- [29] Ref tomorrow --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: is Paul Durkin, who has sent off 3 players all season and been in charge of only one of our games - the home defeat to West Ham. --------------------------------- [28] Veron a doubt --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: for tomorrow with the achilles injury that has been troubling him for months. --------------------------------- [27] More backing for Everton surprise --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: Colin Murdock, who played under David Moyes at Preston. "David hates losing, at anything, he won't like the idea from people that Everton will just roll over or be cannon fodder at Highbury. He worked hard with us on backs-to-the-wall defending, last-ditch stuff because he felt it was important to be able to do that, and I'm sure he'll be impressing that on Everton. He'll hate the thought that people may think that his Everton will capitulate. The idea of being the underdog will inspire him and he'll get that across to his team." --------------------------------- [26] Everton will have a go at Arsenal --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: Lee Carsley "We definitely won't be rolling over for Arsenal. If they need a result against us, we'll still have a point to prove to ourselves. Since David Moyes has come in we've suddenly got the results to take away the pressure of being at the bottom of the league. Next season is going to be a massive season for us, to see which way we are going to go." --------------------------------- [25] French squad close to being named --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: >From Ananova 'French coach Roger Lemerre has called up 21 players for the team's last training session ahead of the World Cup. It is almost certain that the World Cup squad will be made up of the 21 players on the list and Real Madrid stars Zinedine Zidane and Claude Makelele. The duo will miss the start of the training camp in Clairfontaine between May 14-19 due to club commitments. Lemerre has until May 21 to name the 23 players he'll be taking to South Korea and Japan for the World Cup. The team is expected to leave on May 19. The 13 players selected for Clairefontaine training camp are: Fabien Barthez (Manchester United), Alain Boghossian (Parma) Philippe Christanval (Barcelona) Marcel Desailly (Chelsea) Youri Djorkaeff (Bolton) Thierry Henry (Arsenal) Yohan Micoud (Parma), Emmanuel Petit (Chelsea) Mikael Silvestre (Manchester Utd), Lilian Thuram (Juventus), David Trezeguet (Juventus), Patrick Vieira (Arsenal), Sylvain Wiltord (Arsenal) The other eight, currently training in Tigne, are: Vincent Candela (Roma), Djibril Cisse (Auxerre) Gregory Coupet (Olympique Lyonnais) Christophe Dugarry (Bordeaux), Franck Leboeuf (Olympique de Marseille), Bixente Lizarazu (Bayern Munich), Ulrich Rame (Bordeaux), Willy Sagnol (Bayern Munich)' --------------------------------- [24] Calamity rumour surfaces again --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: Daily Star reckons we're after butter fingers David James. --------------------------------- [23] Macari on Veron --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "He's come here from other countries where the playing style is completely different to the way we play in England. The tempo of the game is different, while there's also the language and the culture to get used to. You can't make that big an adjustment overnight and it takes time. I think he's experienced what life in England is like over the last 10 months and I don't think now is the time to get rid of him. He is a quality player and if he could just switch on to things he would be wonderful and I'm sure he will do better next season." --------------------------------- [22] Skip to my Lou - Veron a scapegoat --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: Lou Macari "People are looking at United and the fact that maybe they aren't going to win anything and they're looking for someone to blame. That's not fair because when they have won things in the past they have always done so as a team and now it they don't win anything it will be as a team. You can't just blame Veron for what's happened and quite simply you can't win everything every year. No team does that and things have not gone for United this season, while they have for Arsenal. The team has not been stable this season, particularly in defence where we've seen Jaap Stam leave and Laurent Blanc come in. They've been chopping and changing and we've seen Wes Brown come in and then go out and Ronny Johnsen do the same and so on and United have not had that stability any team needs at the centre of their defence. They've also had injury problems and Wes Brown and Ronny Johnsen have been out, while Roy Keane and David Beckham have also missed key parts of the season. So to try and say ! it's all down to Veron is nonsense. The same thing happened with Teddy Sheringham the last time United didn't win anything in 1998." --------------------------------- [21] Keane in Republic's World Cup Squad --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: S Given (Newcastle), Dean Kiely (Charlton), Alan Kelly (Blackburn); S Staunton (Aston Villa), S Finnan (Fulham), K Cunningham (Wimbledon), G Breen (Coventry), I Harte (Leeds), G Kelly (Leeds), R Dunne (Manchester City), A O'Brien (Newcastle); J McAteer (Sunderland), R Keane (Manchester United), M Kinsella (Charlton), M Holland (Ipswich), K Kilbane (Sunderland), M Kennedy (Wolves), L Carsley (Everton); R Keane (Leeds), N Quinn (Sunderland).

Details below. BOOK: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0743207483/rednewsunitesfir The Boss: the Many Sides of Alex Ferguson http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0743207483/rednewsunitesfir Check http://www.rednews.co.uk to view the image which has been removed from plain text email version of news The first full, independent and objective view of the life of one of the most successful managers of all time Ferguson's own autobiography, MANAGING MY LIFE, was a great bestseller on its publication in 1999, with fans queuing in their hundreds in bookshops. But Fergie's book told the story through only one pair of eyes. Now, Michael Crick, acclaimed biographer of Jeffrey Archer, writes the first full-rounded, independent portrait of Sir Alex. From his roots as a Govan trade unionist to the current peaks of world football, Crick applies the same forsensic skills he applied to the disgraced Tory peer. Through hundreds of interviews with those who've known and worked with Sir Alex, and delving back through the archives, Michael Crick explores the money and the politics of football, the bust-ups, the fights, and those memorable moments of glory. Charismatic and charming, volcanic and ruthless, searingly ambitious and astonishingly successful. What makes Sir Alex Ferguson tick? H! ow did this complex character become the most successful manager in British football, producing -- first at Aberdeen and now at Manchester United -- two of the most prolific trophy-grabbing machines in the modern game? Red Alex is essential reading not just for Manchester United fans and football followers in general, but for anyone interested in the skills of successful management.

Post Sir Alex I expect United to be Champions of Europe. --------------------------------- [18] Fergie on this season --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "We have played the best attacking football and that shows in how many goals we have scored....It is disappointing when you look back at 1-0 defeats at home to West Ham and Middlesbrough. Two draws in those games and the league could have looked very different." --------------------------------- [17] To cheer us all up --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: You couldn't make this up. A few of my bitter mates were at their Man City Supporters Club Promotion Party held at a secret Cheshire location on Saturday night. Their special "celebrity" guest was none other than............. CURLY WATTS. Iain --------------------------------- [16] More from Fergie --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "We are looking forward to facing Arsenal, it should be a terrific game. It is the kind of game that means something to us. We have to do our job and take this to the last game of the season. That is the importance of winning, it is a straightforward situation." --------------------------------- [15] Transfer target --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: SUN reckons we're after Damien Duff --------------------------------- [14] Fergie throws out the press --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: >From the SUN 'ALEX FERGUSON flew into a rage yesterday over criticism of Juan Veron. Furious Fergie threw out the media at a press conference at Manchester United's Carrington training ground. In a heated defence of his British record £28.1million buy, Ferguson denied the Argentine had struggled this season, describing him as "a f.....g brilliant player." The subject of Veron was still to be put to Ferguson when he went into the rage. He shouted: "You tell me what is wrong with Veron? Well, I think he has been playing well." Veron was reported to have been targeted by some United players as tempers frayed at Leverkusen airport over their European Cup exit last week. United denied the bust-up with a measured statement on Monday. Yesterday Ferguson went a step further. He said: "I do not know what this stuff is about, fights and the rest of it. It is all nonsense, absolute lies. People should try to understand what a player's feelings are like." Ferguson went on to refer to certain media assessments of the Argentine's performances this year as "a disgrace" and "a joke." But he refused to say whether Veron, 27, would start in tomorrow's title crunch with Arsenal at Old Trafford.' --------------------------------- [13] More from Wes Brown --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: “If it hadn’t been for Ronny Johnsen getting injured against Deportivo La Coruna at Old Trafford, I wouldn’t have been involved at all in people’s World Cup thoughts. It was unfortunate for him he was injured but it gave me an opportunity to come in and show what I can do. I thought that opportunity had gone for this season. I was in Mr Eriksson’s squads before my knee injury in December so I suppose up to that point there was a good chance I’d have made the full squad for the finals." --------------------------------- [12] Fergie - roll on Wednesday --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "They'll come here and show their normal aggression and they'll try to win. It's up to us to make sure they don't win the league here. We need to keep the whole thing bubbling along." --------------------------------- [11] Fergie on mood after last week --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "I think the disappointment does last for a bit. But what you depend on is the players' character to get out of it.'' --------------------------------- [10] Fergie praises Arsenal --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "We've beaten Leeds away, Chelsea away and Ipswich away in the last few weeks, but Arsenal have been winning all their games as well, so great credit to them. That's championship form and you can't deny it. If you win your last 11 games, which they have done up until now, and in addition, I think they have not lost a goal in their last five games - that's championship form. No matter what happens earlier in the season, you win the league in April and May." --------------------------------- [9] Andy Gray backs us to win --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: Sky's Andy Gray "Arsenal may be going for the double at Old Trafford on Wednesday, but with 67,000 fans cheering for Manchester United, I don't think they will. I feel that too many factors point against them in this game. First and foremost is Manchester United's desire not to lose the title on their own ground. The players are bitterly disappointed with their exit from the Champions League and will not want to finish the season with their successors as champions celebrating in their home. Secondly, history has shown that it's virtually impossible to go the whole season without losing a match away from home. Arsenal came closest in 1991, losing just one game, but it hasn't been done in modern football. Finally, Sir Alex Ferguson will have his side really fired up for this one. Arsene Wenger will as well of course and it won't be easy, but Arsenal had a big game over the weekend and will have in the back of their minds that they can still win it against Everton next week." --------------------------------- [8] Fergie on Veron story 'rubbish' --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: Interviewed on MUTV he called it 'lies' saying that sometimes the media couldn't print the truth if it were staring them in the face. "Obviously Seba's not going to score the goals that Ruud scores and that's not why we bought him. But I think he's done fine. I've been pleased with his performances and it's a media thing which is disappointing." --------------------------------- [7] Fergie on Becks latest --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "I would think in 10 days time it will be about healed - and then we can put him on a remedial programme. I am not saying he will be ready for the first game. But he should be ready for some part of the World Cup." --------------------------------- [6] Wes Brown on World Cup chances --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "If it had not been for Ronny Johnsen getting injured against Deportivo La Coruna at Old Trafford, I wouldn't have been involved at all in people's World Cup thoughts. I don't know how the World Cup situation will pan out for me. All I've been able to do is play my best for United recently and see what happens. If it doesn't work out then there is always the Under-21s, so I will hopefully be playing international football in the summer at whatever level." --------------------------------- [5] Bergkamp backs his old mate Jaap --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "I'm just happy that Jaap Stam's not playing in that game. I'm not completely objective as I know Jaap and I like him but I think he did well for United. How much it weakened them with him leaving, I'm not sure. But I thought they were a little bit more open at the back this season than in other seasons. One of the best three defenders I have played against would be Jaap. I know him pretty well and have played against him in games as well as in training." --------------------------------- [4] Cuddly Pete on summer plans --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "We should anticipate activity in the close season. The manager will sit down and the two of us will discuss what is going to happen. We are not suddenly going to change all the players and turn everything upside down. That’s not the process here. This is not a one-year, one-event club. There are, though, players heading for the end of their contracts and so you would expect room for manoeuvre." --------------------------------- [3] Butt defends Veron --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: "Maybe he is not a typical United midfielder who tackles like mad, but he always gives 100 per cent. He works hard and gets his foot in and his ability on the ball, as he showed against Deportivo, is brilliant to watch. I think he has been judged a little too harshly on his first season. The price tag had a lot to do with that. But I have no doubt he will come good in the end. It's great to have a player like Seba in your dressing room. Personally, I think he is one of the best players in the world and he just needs to be given a break . People should just leave him alone and let him get on with playing his football." --------------------------------- [2] Reserves lose --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: United Reserves 1 Leeds 2 Muirhead the scorer for the United team already crowned as Champions. Tate hit the bar in the 89th minute. Decent crowd at Altrincham's ground - our new reserve home for next season we wonder? --------------------------------- [1] New Red News out tomorrow --------------------------------- Posted Tuesday, May 7, 2002 by bar-knee: The new issue of Red News is out on Wednesday for the Arsenal game. It is the final issue of the season and is a bumper packed edition. Cost £2. There is so much in this issue, so many exclusives (a player interview, revelations about the away ticket scheme for next season) that we hope you'll help the cause and buy a copy. --------------------------------- [10] More Gaz Neville --------------------------------- Posted Monday, May 6, 2002 by Farrell: "It's bad timing, but there's nothing I can do about it," he said. "I hope England do very well in the summer." "But my main concern now is to get fit for Manchester United next season because we have a big season next season. "We want to do better in Europe, while we also want to try to wrap up the title quicker. The positive side of it is it gives me a rest and hopefully the injury will heal properly and correctly. "You're going to go through your career and have ups and downs and you're going to have to deal with all the different things that happen to you. "You have to deal with everything at this club and it's a test of character when you get injured." --------------------------------- [9] Gaz Gives The Details --------------------------------- Posted Monday, May 6, 2002 by Farrell: Its always United first, but I still feel sorry for the
