Old Trafford noise can drown out external din
ManUtd.com reporter Adam Marshall at Old Trafford.Along with a thick skin, it is a trait you have to develop supporting the Reds and anyone who lived through the glorious years of sustained success and domestic domination under Sir Alex Ferguson knows just how much it riled every other football follower in the land.
It must still irk them that a side currently in 14th place in the Premier League table still dominates the sports news agenda. The Newcastle United faithful rightfully gloated during the 4-1 beating at St James’ Park on Sunday; those who remembered the way they were pipped to the title by Ferguson’s mind games and mastery in 1995/96 will feel some overdue payback was needed.
