Fergie handed fine and touchline ban |

Just say this on Sky sports.com
Sir Alex Ferguson has been handed a touchline ban by the Football Association after admitting a charge of improper conduct.
The Manchester United manager has been hit with a four-match match ban, two of which are suspended until the end of the 2010/11 season, following a Regulatory Commission hearing on Thursday.
The suspended sanction will be automatically activated should Ferguson be found guilty of a similar charge over the next 18 months on top of any sanction imposed for that offence.
He has also been fined £20,000 and warned as to his future conduct following comments he made about referee Alan Wiley.
Ferguson described the official as 'unfit' following United's 2-2 draw with Sunderland last month, although he later apologised for his remarks.
Commission Chairman Peter Griffiths QC said "Each member of the Commission recognised Sir Alex Ferguson's achievements and stature within the game.
"Having said that, it was made clear to Sir Alex that with such stature comes increased responsibilities.
"The Commission considered his admitted remarks, in the context in which they were made, were not just improper but were grossly improper and wholly inappropriate.
"He should never have said what he did say."

Nani reveals Fergie fury |

I saw this on SSN this morning. It seems there is still life and passion in the old boy in charge of United. And it's not just the young or cocky players that feel his wrath at times!!!
Manchester United winger Nani has revealed just how tough life can be under Sir Alex Ferguson.
In an in-depth interview with Portuguese newspaper 'I' - the United flyer reveals how quickly Ferguson can turn.
But he admits that Ferguson does not just pick on certain players and that United legends Ryan Giggs and Gary Neville are often on the end of his tirades.
"Ferguson is a very complicated man," he stated.
"He's tough. If things are all right, then they are all right. But when he thinks something is wrong, everything is screwed.
"He can go from complimenting you to just plain trashing you in a matter of minutes. Has it happened to me? Hell, yes! He'll say 'Nani, how could you miss this or this'?"
"He shouts at players in front of everyone. No one escapes, everybody is the same. Giggs and Neville suffer most, because they have more experience. It is 'F**k' here and 'F**k' there."
Mismanaged
And in what could rile Ferguson more than anything, Nani agreed with the interviewer that he was being a little 'mismanaged' by United.
"I think so, but there is still a long way in the championship remaining, but I did not play the important matches, against Liverpool, Manchester City or Tottenham," he said.
"Not playing these games, I am a bit sad - but I also played with an injury so let's see if things improve.
"People expect more from me and it's not easy. But they are also not doing what they said they were going to.
"I know it would be better if I scored more goals.
"I can have a spectacular game but nobody guarantees me I will be starting the next match. It shatters your confidence."
Despite some negative comments, Nani insisted he was not looking to leave Old Trafford.
"No, no," he said. "I don't even think about that."

Maybe, as well, with the revelation that he's been playing with an injury, we might see an improvement now he's fit again? I was impressed that he was not a happy bunny being dropped for a couple of games. Fight for your place!
