Rafa BeneTIT and the facts are total strangers, for instance, in his so called 'rant' (for 'rant' read 'cracking under pressure' ), he said
Rafa's fact 1 :"Two years ago we were playing a lot of early kick-offs away on Saturdays when United were playing on Sundays. And we didn't say anything."
THE TRUTH :Rafael Benitez, September 2007: "We will be talking to the Premier League about this because it is not fair. I don't know if it is possible to change these fixtures in the New Year, but I hope so because, in the last few years, we have played more games on a Saturday than anyone and more away games than anyone. There are too many early kick-offs and I am not pleased about the situation at all."
Rafa's fact 2 : "You can see every single week how they put (referees) under pressure, we know this. We have seen it before. We have seen players sent off at Old Trafford and we do not see our opponents sent off."
THE TRUTH :: Opposition players sent off at Old Trafford in the league this season - none. Stoke's Andy Wilkinson is the only player to be sent off against United in the Premier League this season. Opposition players sent off against Liverpool this season - five, including Nemanja Vidic of Manchester United
I could go on, but they are all here, http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/football/early-doors/article/115807/ see for yourself. He should realise, as Alex has said, he was being ridiculous, and apologise.
