f a club level board interfered and told their manager who he could or couldn't pick as captain the press would be screaming bloody murder as it's the managers job. As they all want Dirty 'Arry the negativity that surrounded Mourinho, Curbishley, etc... having their board poke their nose in has gone.

nless your a Liverpool fan, do you really give a s**t what Suarez thinks or says?? I'm more bothered what I'm having for dinner tonight!! I won't even waste my time booing him for two reasons...first, I don't think he is worth wasting that amount of energy on, and second, I'm a United fan and would rather spend it encouraging my own.
