[KARTONick]

WoooooooooooooooooW What a fan
Fergie gets hairdryer from Margaret,
80
AN 80-year-old gran from Rochdale
has forced Alex Ferguson to rethink his
tactics.
The Manchester United manager will
scrap his diamond formation at Chelsea
after she rang the club.
Fergie said: “I’d better not upset her.
Did you hear her on MUTV?
“She’s 80, phoned up and said ‘I’m fed
up watching this diamond’.
“She said ‘Tell that manager to stop
playing that diamond’. So I better not
play it.”
Lifelong United fan Margaret rang the
club’s in-house TV channel to brand
Fergie’s latest formation “stupid”.
She pleaded: “Please don’t play the
diamond at Chelsea. If you want me to
have a word with the manager, I will.
“I’ve supported United longer than he
has!”
Margaret rang in to the station’s
Thursday Focus show and spoke with
former players David May and Quinton
Fortune.
During the hilarious call she said: “Have
you not noticed all the goals you’re
giving away when you’re playing that
stupid diamond position? We have to go
back to playing normally and catch up.
“It isn’t entertaining when you’re 80
years old to watch goals going in from
the other side.
“I don’t like it. It’s going to give me a
heart attack and I’m 80.
“You wouldn’t like to give me a heart
attack.
“I have an opinion and it’s certainly not
the diamond. They don’t know what to
do — they run around like lost sheep.”
Margaret was also not happy about the
early goals going in against United at
the moment.
She added: “I’m telling you how long I’ve
been watching United — I’ve seen every
good player you’ve ever had.
“And they weren’t that stupid, and
giving goals away, at the beginning.”
