Wow. What an awful amount of fuss over something which seems rather insignificant. Did Fergie make those comments to the Scandinavian Supporters website? Are we going to get done for tapping up Dimitar Berbatov? Is Daniel Levy “different” or devious?

Well there seems to be all kinds of conspiracy theories flying around at the moment, which all seem to originate from the foreign membership site.

But what did it actually say?

The original article was found here, however after Daniel Levy submitted his dossier and Sir Alex Ferguson talked about bringing in his legal team, so it was deleted.

“We have submitted a bid for Bebatov, and we’re optimistic about the prospect of signing him. He’s impressed over a long period of time and would make a good addition to the squad,” Fergie is quoted as saying.

The site has him admitting that he would love to bring Berbatov to the pre-season tour to RSA, but says that the clubs is in no rush.

“We’re in no rush and are hopeful to stage constructive negotiations with Tottenham soon.”
