In the Begining there was Fergie

You have to start somewhere, so here goes...... I think it was just after Alex Ferguson had bought Jaap Stam and was sniffing around another PSV Eindhoven Defender - possibly Kevin Hofland - that one of the PSV directors was so incensed by Alex Ferguson's ability to ignore the rules on tapping up and destabilise the Dutch club uttered the immortal line ... "Who does he think he is ..... The King of Football?"

The line has stuck with me ever since, not that Fergie is alone in behaving in a manner where people find him regal and untouchable. I guess it happens once an hour in the week and on Saturdays 100 times between 3 and 4:50.

The hope is that this blog will highlight and lampoon such behaviour in much the same way David Hills manages every week in the Observer Sports section. Outing the insincere, the arrogant, the enemy in the camp.

Anyway that's the hope. Come back and enjoy, share and shout.
