I can't believe the fuss about this. Both Moyes and the journalist are laughing about it in the clip. It's a comment on the lines of "you could have gone easy on me at the end there". If you read the transcript it will look poor but put it in context and there is nothing in it. I don't know why he apologised, he should have laughed it off.

A non story.

I can believe it,their was some idiot banging on about sexism on SSN earlier.
Worlds gone mad.
People love to be offended & love a drama.

Like you say it's a non story really.

If the reporter had been a man would we be debating it or just laughing it off.
Females in football have enough to deal with she was not bothered .
get a life and stop phoning in stupid things like this.
It has to be seen in context.

Absolute storm in a tea cup.
Someone is suffering from a mahoosive sense of humour failure.
As has been said before, some people just look to be offended, I think it makes them feel important.

Remember when Moyes went cry arsing to the press after Rafa called Everton a smaller club??
Also remember Fergie weighing in as well as the fat spanish waiter's comments were disrespectful and was out of order and caused more anomosity in the City than any other manager either team has had, before or since.

It was more about you calling him a far Spanish waiter.

Seems you like to pick and choose what is or isn't banter and what's disrespectful or not
Can't stand him mate, genuinely saw blokes who'd been mates for over 30 years come to blows over the anomisty he caused.
If it wasn't for the fact I've got decent Geordie mates I'd be happy to see him fail in everything he does.
So if calling him a fat spanish waiter is ironic then fair enough, I'll accept it.

If friends are coming to blows because of something a rival manager has said about their team then to me that says more about those supposed 'friends' than anything else.

It's a game

How would you know living 200 miles away :whistle:

Dignity Dave wasn't squeaky clean neither, to blame Rafa is very bitter.

Ferguson weighed in because he knew Rafa was a threat to him and United. See how he changed with Wenger when they weren't direct rivals? The same with "Big Sam".
