#165 – The Book of Ferg




Rant Cast show

Summary: On this week’s packed Rant Cast regular presenters Ed and Paul discuss Manchester United’s fixtures against Southampton and Real Sociedad at Old Trafford. In the Premier League a late Southampton goal snatched a point for the visitors, but what part did United manager David Moyes play with a late defensive substitution? Then, in the Champions League, United put in one of the more impressive performances of a disappointing season to date, beating the Basque club 1-0 with an exciting performance from Shinji Kagawa thrown in for good measure. We talk about Sir Alex Ferguson’s autobiography, with the former manager laying bare his relationship with Roy Keane, David Beckham and others. But did the Scot go too far in revealing the dressing room’s secrets, while omitting to discuss the most controversial aspect of his 25 year Old Trafford reign: the Glazer takeover. Finally, we take your questions and look ahead to matches against Stoke City in the Premier League and Norwich City in the Capital One Cup.
