Rio Ferdinand will play against brother Anton in tomorrow’s game against QPR. This obviously isn’t the first time they’ve played on opposite sides though, with Anton scoring against us for West Ham but scoring an own goal for us against Sunderland.
Rio says that when he loses he goes in to a big sulk and won’t speak to his other family members for a few days.
“It’s special if we win when we play against each other,” said Rio. “I can enjoy it more, but if we lose I go into hiding and don’t come out. I don’t speak to family or anyone for a few days. I have blanked family and friends at Upton Park before because we have not got the right result. I have just got on the bus and made my way back to Manchester. They have been texting to ask where I am. I don’t reply for a couple of days. I get in a sulk sometimes because I want to win. Sometimes West Ham have needed the result to stay up, or at Sunderland so the rest of the family just go with who needs the results. This time I don’t think they can side with anyone because we both need to win.”

Don’t worry Rio, you won’t be sulking until the European!

I am remarkably similar to Rio Ferdinand. I sulk when United don’t win and don’t speak to family & friendsand I’m glad to hear he’s the same.
I Planned to go holiday with my cousin and my friend (who are both Chelsea fans) in 2010 summer… but I couldn’t face them after we lost the league to them, so I decided not to go holiday with them
aww, poor Rio, can always sniff yer own guffs for shits and giggles though eh?
I wholeheartedly agree with him, glad to see is not just the fans who feel so awfully depressed when results don’t go our way. In his own weird way Rio really cares about United. He has been top class this year, I hope he stays on, because he brings experience and assurance to the back. Still waiting for the day when we will see the ever strong partnership of Vida-Ferdinand.
Gosh Rio, we have so much in common!
