Honesty in football

PHUKET: “I think the Premier league is a strong product because there’s a tremendous honesty in our game and fans play a part in that.”

Manchester United’s evergreen manager Sir Alex Ferguson asserting that football is a business. However, it seems that as the Scot reaches seventy-years-old his interpretation of honesty has become skewed somewhat.

The fans maybe honest, but the remaining parts of the ‘product’ certainly are not, Alex.
