Not for me, though i can't really say i was thrilled with him calling the barcodes a wee club. To my mind it's the kind of thing Mourinho would have said and the reason I'd prefer Guardiola and Moyes as the next manager. Fergie'ss not lost the plot though because he would have thought about what he was saying first. Some have argued that what he did was showhe's not lost and he's got the old us and them mentatility going again. I can't reall say i buy that, as i've never doubted for a moment that he had lost it.
Having said that the stick he gave Pardew was funny and the reality check for the georide nation was the kind of thing that has needed saying. I just wish it had been someone else saying it.
Music
Bob Mould - Silver age: I loved Sugar and this is a real return to those heady days, funny how some guitar, bass and drum trio's can sound so powerful.
Crusaders - Street life: Obviously the title track is one of the most well known singles from the 70's, but it's interesting hearing in the context of the album. I don't know what genre this would fit, jazz soul ,fusion maybe, anyway a cracking piece of easy listening.
Deerhoof - Breakup song: I'm a pretty big fan of the US leftield indie outfit, though i suppose the lead vocalist may be an acquired taste for some. This is another cracking L.P.
Flying Lotus - Until the quiet comes: A pretty good album, reminds me at times of the Avalanches, i'll have to explore his back catalogue.
Mala - Mala in Cuba: Another cracking techno/dubstep album, though the dubstep genre seems to contain some right old crap, it also contains some total brilliance. This firmly belongs in the latter category
Robert Hood - Motor nightmare world 3: More techno, this time from it's US spiritual home Detroit, slow, atmospheric and brilliant.
