Ferguson call to bring in cap on foreign players
Man Utd boss Sir Alex Ferguson reckons there should be a limit on foreign players at Premier League teams.

Apparently he is also looking to ban:

  • Managers not born in the U.K.
  • Teams wearing white shorts
  • Sponsored stadiums
  • Any team that does not include City, United, County, or similar moniker in team name
  • Referees who do not realise that all decisions must be in favour of Man Utd (* unless a lead of four or more goals is held)
  • Anyone spending more than 50% annually of the total Man Utd transfer budget
  • Any Club that does not field at least 8 intensely ugly players (see Man Utd)
  • Any member of the media who suggests any teams plays more attractive football than his own
  • European Cup victories before 1998 are not valid and do not count – making Man Utd the joint most succesful club in this tournament

I think his expectations are 100% reasonable and in no way suggest an alcoholic Scotsman as bitter as the rain in Manchester.
