Friday's Freaking Foolishness

ITs fricken Friday chaps and chapettes..

 Welcome to Man U.. Young...

It's that time to cut lose and engage in kick back time.. For most of you, some intoxication and stupidity will follow. That's normal.. lol, and for other's time to kick back and recharge.. I often find myself tired on Sunday as i don't adhere to that advice and continually plunge head first into a weekend, busy every day, cramming all my fun into two days..

This follows on from an amazing last weekend which should be hard to top but can be done very easily..Here's too a wicked weekend!

 

So i read this helluva interesting article on good old Julius Malema.. basically highlighting the appeal he has to some.. Basically, what he offers is the best out there. There isn't any one else promising anything to the youth.. "[Malema]... has identified a fast-growing, political market: black youth. A minority of this group can benefit from cadre deployment, patronage, nepotism, tenderpreneurship, fronting, affirmative action, black economic empowerment, and the other familiar components of ANC policy... It offers an interesting read into the very realistic input that this.....guy has.. read the rest of the article on: http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/Politics/If-not-Malema-what-else-expert-asks-20110623

 

The whole of South Africa has been very stoked to have Michelle Obama and fam cruising the country, gripping the attentions of many. She had some very smart things to say, she spoke about courage, the youth, benefiting our country and our countrymen. She was a pleasant and inspiring individual to many of the youth. She also isn't shy to get it down and chill with the local, and jammed around..  During her whirlwind tour of South Africa, US First Lady Michelle Obama, who is in the country with her mother and two daughters, stopped by to eat salad and drink lemonade and ice tea at the popular deli and restaurant The Kitchen, situated in Sir Lowry Road in Woodstock on Thursday.

You know when someone picks up your phone and starts to go through your messages you get fricken annoyed. Well imagine what they found on Bin laden's phone, lol.. ha ha, hey check down the list "Mom".. "lets call it it.. Hi were the US govt, we've just killed your son biatch! USA! USA!" ha ha.. The cellphone of Osama bin Laden’s trusted courier, which was recovered in the raid that killed both men in Pakistan last month, contained contacts to a militant group that is a longtime asset of Pakistan’s intelligence agency, senior American officials who have been briefed on the findings say.

Serena Williams Hints At Wimbledon Sexism – Serena Williams wonders why she and her older sister Venus have played once each on Court 2 at Wimbledon this year – instead of Centre Court or Court 1. “They like to put us on Court 2 – me and Venus – for whatever reason,” Serena said. “I haven’t figured it out yet. Maybe one day we’ll figure it out.” What exactly are you saying Serena, is it sexism.. Or rather..there might be something else in there, MAYBE they just don't like the way the court turns into an orgy of moans and groans and the constant echoing of such as led too many patrons coming to watch some killer tennis have their focus turn to sex, and groping ensuing, with yesterday's 87 year old Willy Baker, having a couple of strokes himself up in the bleachers.. ha ha..

Usher Wants Pippa Middleton To Model New Lingerie Line – Usher has his eyes set on Pippa Middleton–sister of Kate Middleton aka Prince William’s new royal wife–to model his upcoming lingerie line! R&B star Usher is set to release his first ladies lingerie line this summer. [popeater] Why is this guy allowed to speak, oh yes he is a celebrity, ha ha.. Come Usher, you dirty little man, you can't take the Princesses sister, cause she has a booty and put her in your campaign.. ha ha.. You dirty Omg douche! ha ha.. Although he had a idea, a blatantly "i should have thought first" idea.. ha ha ha.. Usher.. Omg..

Sometimes we assume movies aren't real.. are you sure.. 'Cause some dudes are straight outta the movies, even helping juice up scripts for Hollywood..  Mobster Bulger Had $800,00 In Cash And 30 Guns – More than $800,000 in cash, 30 firearms and fake IDs were found at the Santa Monica, California, apartment of fugitive mobster James “Whitey” Bulger, who will be taken to Boston to face a string of charges, including multiple murders, the FBI said Thursday. [cnn] I bet he never ever got robbed at home, no one ever broke into his house to steal his favourite shoes.. NO..cause they knew... ha ha.. Shit, Whitey sounds like he would take you out for just having a laugh.. "are you having a laugh".. ha ha..

Dudes, lets get over this oak.. They just don't dig him.. Come ON.. I think we would rather jam with Mugabe than Justin.. Wow, that's quite hectic..  Justin Bieber Tackled In Manhattan – An unidentified man leaped over a barrier and knocked Justin Bieber to the ground outside the Macy’s in Manhattan’s Herald Square early yesterday afternoon. This isn’t the first time Bieber has been attacked at a public event. Back in May, the singer was egged by audience members at a concert in Sydney, Australia. Epic. [rollingstone]

BOK FRIDAY.. Yes.. rugby world cup.. come on the Boks, Eagles and Samoa..

Here are some bok team predications..
My team is based on the players and combinations I'd like to see in the World Cup semifinal against New Zealand.
I have included injured players Juan Smith and Heinrich Brüssow because they will be fit by the time the World Cup starts and they have nothing to prove at international level.
Frans Steyn earns the fullback berth on the basis of his talent and long-range goal-kicking ability.
Jean de Villiers on the wing is an attempt to accommodate South Africa's best backline talent in one team, with Juan de Jongh at inside centre. De Villiers showed at the weekend he can perform at wing.
Schalk Burger at No8 is a selection based on the way he's currently operating in the Stormers set-up. He's far more of a link player and ball carrier than a fetcher these days.
Craig Ray:
15 Frans Steyn (Racing Metro)
14 JP Pietersen (Sharks)
13 Jaque Fourie (Stormers)
12 Juan de Jongh (Stormers)
11 Jean de Villiers (Stormers)
10 Morné Steyn (Bulls)
9 Fourie du Preez (Bulls)
8 Schalk Burger (Stormers)
7 Juan Smith (Cheetahs)
6 Heinrich Brüssow (Cheetahs)
5 Victor Matfield (Bulls, captain
4 Bakkies Botha (Bulls)
3 Werner Kruger (Bulls)
2 Bismarck du Plessis (Sharks)
1 Tendai Mtawarira (Sharks)
Reserves: 16 Chiliboy Ralepelle, 17 Jannie du Plessis, 18 Andries Bekker, 19 Pierre Spies, 20 Francois Hougaard, 21 Pat Lambie, 22 Gio Aplon.

Our experts pick their Bok teams

Two go for Pat Lambie at flyhalf, while the other two opt for Bulls No.10 Morne Steyn. And as for fullback, three pick Frans Steyn.

Archie Henderson:
You will notice two players in this team who are not even in the Bok preliminary squad - Johan Sadie and Charl McLeod.
I have done so because (a) unlike Peter de Villiers, I can; and (b) they are two future stars. Sadie is the find of the season despite his rare performances for the Stormers, and he can also play wing or centre.
Sadly, there is no place for Jean de Villiers for all his experience, intelligence and ability. He's just too long in the tooth and it already looks like South Africa will be taking an old team to the World Cup. Also Juan Smit and Heinrich Brüssow might be said to be fit by the time the World Cup comes round, but I have my doubts.
Where I can, I have opted for younger players, especially with Lambie and De Jongh in the backline and Bekker in the pack.
Archie's Bok team:
15 Frans Steyn (Racing Metro)
14 JP Pietersen (Sharks)
13 Jaque Fourie (Stormers)

5 Victor Matfield (Bulls, captain
4 Andries Bekker (Stormers)

2 Bismarck du Plessis (Sharks)
1 Tendai Mtawarira (Sharks)
Reserves: 16 Adriaan Strauss, 17 CJ van der Linde, 18 Bakkies Botha, 19 Danie Rossouw, 20 Charl McLeod, 21 Johan Sadie, 22 Gio Aplon.
Craig Shelver
My team for the World Cup is made up largely of Super 15 combinations.
The Sharks front row is a formidable one that can continue its dominance on the international stage.
The added ball-carrying and mobility of Andries Bekker in the second row will be an asset to the Boks, not to mention a 2.08m-tall jumper in the lineouts.
The bolstering runs of big Willem Alberts will strike fear in the hearts of opponents.
The tried and tested combination of Fourie du Preez and Morne Steyn for the Bulls, along with Stormers Jean de Villiers and Jaque Fourie, are ones that can't be overlooked.
The excitement that Gio Aplon creates when he touches the ball sees him get the No15 jersey.
Craig S's Bok team:
15 Gio Aplon (Stormers)
14 JP Pietersen (Sharks)
13 Jaque Fourie (Stormers)
12 Jean de Villiers (Stormers)

TAunted.

There will always be people pulling you down, or spitting in your face.. Wipe it off.. Smile..

Monday After KDAY..

Oh thats right you did..

Morning, to some good evening..

If you have not heard, let me continue to relay the message. Kingswood beat St Andrews in the rugby by 23-22. It was a hard fought game, lots of ups and down, but in the end, our drought was washed away with some gees from the boys.. Funny, i was thinking, does that mean for some of us, we had no gees? Did we have a mental block? It doesn't matter because these chaps did it for us!  I think had South Africa won the World Cup in footie, it might have been a similar scenario, it brings me back to 2007 when we won the world cup, or 2008 when we won the champions league(Man Utd duh..).. So the exuberance that was shown by the whole of Grahamstown on Saturday was amazing, many of us are still wondering what the F happened. The final whistle blew and many, could not stop or rather want to hide their emotional plight for such a day! Running onto the field, screaming, ecstatic, unsure of what to do, do we sing? Do we make a tunnel..? What? Ha ha.. hugging, crying and laughing that was what happened for the next hour on lower field.. Did you ever notice how empty it got after the game, students ran back to houses, parents to the Highlander, I have to mention MR Kday himself, John Bandey. Ha ha, it being his 10 reunion and a win to celebrate a good return to the town of good memories, clearly took hold of him! Had he won R100 million rand in the lotto, his joyous mood would have nothing on his near delirious super stoked joyous self! He was beyond the moon, coupled with SABs finest (many its kday, come on!) he hugged everybody, there mom and there Uncle Pete, ha ha.. It was an amazing day especially for those down for the reunion hadn't not returned for 10 years, the best gift ever.. True story.. Sunday rolls around and boy, it felt like kday was being played in my head, the pain, the joy, the sadness.. Sadness? Ya, you know there were the sour puss's who couldn't apparently take one loss and started hating life, i was like hey chum, we can handle it for 18 years and have a jam regardless(it does get easier) of a win then so should you.. I didn't actually see Chris Quinn out later... Some people who were in Grahamstown but a little to hungover to make it to the game, were bummed to come to the wyvern a little later and not be part of the special few who LIVED it.. YEs.. its all about KDAY.. its been 17/18 years.. I am def gonna spend some time on it.. ha ha..

Sooo... besides the USUAL..  African National Congress Youth League president Julius Malema used his closing address on Sunday to launch a veiled attack on President Jacob Zuma and his close allies within the party’s national executive committee, in what appeared to be the clearest indication yet that the league was moving away from the ANC president and his lieutenants. [mail&guardian]ha ha.. What a guy.. THis guy, if he does go into the running of the presidency, thats the day i join politics with the intent of causing anarchy.. (Serious face!!) You have to be a fool not to think this man has significant influence, we shall rue the chance to take him out while he is sleeping..Soon he will be operating from the union buildings, YES.. I said it, do you think his ambitions lie only with lining pockets and spreading words of nationalisation and redistribution.. ITs happening.. ITs happening now.. Wake up oaks..

So there is this really really really dangerous criminal just been released.. No, not Shabir, ha ha.. Someone worse.. Maybe older.. lol.. Murder Prisoner Released At 108 - India’s oldest prisoner has been freed from a jail in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh at the age of 108, after serving time for committing multiple murders, a report says. Brij Bihari Pandey was convicted along with 15 men for the 1987 murders of four people over the inheritance of a Hindu religious institution. [bigpond]

Ah my man, who used wear No 9. You were caught taking cocaine of a hooker's belly in a sleazy hotel.. Obvious your wife or rather ex is over your vibes and doesn't want you around her kids.. I mean, COME on.. REHAB pal.. Sorry about your situation.. but come ON PAL! Joost van der Westhuizen intends getting an urgent application to force his wife, Amor Vittone, to let him see his children more regularly. His lawyer, Robert Klinkenberg said Joost wanted more time with his children as the “current agreement between the couple wasn’t working”. [news24]

 Russians are tough! Take this 36 year-old scientist for instance – swimming naked with Beluga whales in minus 1.5 degrees Celsius! Natalia Avseenko wants to explore the possibility of taming them before they are transported to dolphinariums around the world. Why naked? They do not like to be touched by artificial materials such as diving suits.. lol.. This is some crazy stuff, imagine.. naked in freezing temperatures, with whales! Hectic!

Taunted.

MOnday 3-day week.. Fever of Kday!

Hey Chaps and Chapettes,

Seems as if there has been an absence of my presence on this blog.. Lol.. Minnaar.. Good job, on keeping the articles coming from the Kaap, douchebag! ha ha.. Wow, another week hampered by the indescribable love South Africans have for public holidays! Lol.. 3 day week.. and you GUESSED IT.. KDAY.. I know some individuals feel, leaving high school behind is the way forward, why go back to relive the experiences etc.. Well you're an idiot.. The reason we go back, to jam with old mates, to have a beer with cool teacher, to taunt some douche who hasn't changed, to creep the that matric chick that was hot in 1999.. Lol.. we go back to relive the good times and experiences that shaped who we are today.. Also we go to (as Kingswoodians) this great expectation of winning kday and shutting the snoozles up just for one year.. Ha ha, many of College dudes are mates now, so we all have a good laugh, they laugh slightly harder at the record, but never-the-less, its that time.. #kdayfever..

Feck, back to the real world of South African violence.. Except this violent act was brought on by an old timer, with some balls, bigger than JZ/JM/ and Jimmy Manyi.. A 72-year-old woman, living on her own in St. Francis Bay, killed an intruder early Sunday morning after she had been tied up, threatened and shoved in a cupboard. Police spokesman, Marianette Olivier said that two men had broken into her house, armed with a knife and screwdriver. They then blindfolded the woman and forced her to give them her bank cards and pin numbers. Olivier continued by saying:While one of the men left with her car to draw money from her account, she managed to untie herself and got a firearm from the cupboard.

The man tried to grab her .38 Special and she fired shots, killing him. The second man came back, saw her standing with the gun and ran away.
No one has been charged with murder. We will do formal investigations, send a docket to the public prosecutor and then a decision will be made.

This is what I'm talking about, although some might argue it was risky.. It was the way in which she said "fuck that, i will not b a statistic" BOOM.. that's how she rolls.. I wish she was my Nana, although my Nana still kick her ass.. My Nana is hardcore is yours?

Netherlands To Ban The Only Reason You Went There In The First Place - Although this seems kinda stupid..(as like all things, the demand will not get lesser than it is already.. All that will happen is that it will become black marketed again! Or rather like the rest of the world.. I have been there(Amsterdam) and I certainly would be a SAD SAD day..Then again, maybe you can become a member just by paying before you chuck to the 'Dam. The Netherlands plans to ban foreign visitors from pot shops in a move that opponents have labeled “tourism suicide.” Under the plan, the “coffee shops” that sell marijuana will become private clubs limited to adult Dutch citizens who have to show proof of ID and become a member to buy marijuana. This follows closely on the heels of Denmark, who recently banned Marmite. [latimes]

Massive Brawl Erupts On Virgin Airplane - I would have loved to be on this plane.. I would be taking bets from people, 1st class and all.. Come on folks, get on this, make some money.. ha ha ha.. Fricken douchebag tourists! A man aged 76 and two members of his family were arrested after a ‘vicious’ punch-up on a plane that took cabin crew 30 minutes to break up. Derek Edmond, his daughter Zoe King and her husband Martin were on a Virgin Atlantic flight from Gatwick to Barbados when a Danish family sitting nearby accused them of being too noisy. It is not known if there was any Marmite on the plane at the time. [dailymail]

Red devils..

Hello.. Check out this great team.. Loads of history.. and Scandals.. RED DEVIL FOR LIFE!

Revelations about Ryan Giggs' private life continue to emerge, weeks after he was Nanamed in Parliament as the football who had taken out an injunction to avoid claims of an affair with Big Brother's Imogen Thomas becoming public.
It's a big tabloid story, but there have been many more involving the world's best-supported club. Here are out top 10 Manchester United sex scandals:
10) Jonny Evans and the "piece of meat' party
Manchester United's 2007 Christmas bash was the party to end all parties, largely because Sir Alex Ferguson has not allowed players to organise one since. The headlines focused on young Jonny Evans, who was falsely accused of rape, but the incidentals were Bacchanailal: An eight-hour booze-up followed by a party at Manchester's swanky Great John Street hotel, to which 100 hand-picked girls had been invited.

"It was horrible," said one of what transpired. "A player had been pestering me and my friends for ages trying to get us up to a bedroom. I kept telling him 'no' but he just wouldn't take it.
"He was really drunk as were the rest of them. Then he just grabbed me and started to drag me away from the main area towards the toilets.
"I was in tears. The players were treating girls like pieces of meat."
The night was also memorable for Wayne Rooney suggesting to one partygoer that she and her friend should join him in the toilets for a threesome. Alas, his roving eye had fallen on Daily Mirror undercover reporter Sarah Tetteh.
9) Kleberson and the teenage bride
When midfielder Kleberson arrived at Old Trafford from Atletico Paranaense in 2003, two things became apparent: he wasn't as good as fellow new signing Cristiano Ronaldo and his wife was even younger than the preening Portuguese, then just 18.
It emerged that the Brazilian had started dating his missus, the former Daiane Williams E Silva, when he was 21 and she was just 14, turning down a move to Leeds in 2002 because, at 15, she was not old enough to leave the country without her parents.
The couple married on Daiane's 16th birthday, which happened to be Valentine's Day, and a little over 10 months later she gave birth to their first child after the act of jumping up to celebrate her husband's goal against Blackburn sent her into labour.
8) The King of Pornography
No player has made a more impressive entrance to Manchester United than Dwight Yorke.
Having arrived from Aston Villa for £12.6million in August 1998, he managed to make both the back and front pages of a Sunday tabloid a month later when it printed stills from a video found in the player's rubbish, which showed he and former Villa colleague Mark Bosnich involved in an orgy with four women and a transvestite, the keeper being whipped by one leather-clad blonde while Yorke had sex with her friend. The footballers were later seen donning women's clothing.
It ushered in a golden age of Yorke shagging stories, of which his former landlady and friend Sheila Dudley memorably said: "If some girl comes to his house with her knickers in her handbag, it's up to him, isn't it?"
Best among them was the conquest Yorke had convinced that he was a local postman named Brian. She said of their trip to a nightclub: "People were coming past and saying 'hello' to him and he said it was because he delivered their letters. I believed him. He seemed a lovely bloke."
Later, he would invite then-girlfriend Katie 'Jordan' Price to Old Trafford, where Victoria Beckham would greet her in the WAGs' box with a cheery chorus of Who Let The Dogs Out?
In 2001, the pair would approach an undercover female Daily Mirror reporter in Monte Carlo, with Yorke asking, "Do you like black men? Do you fancy a threesome?" and Price pleading: "Come on. Please don't leave me on my own."
Hailed by the Old Trafford crowd with the song, "Dwight Yorke, wherever you may be, You are the king of pornography", the striker harumphed that the chant "set a bad example to kids", shortly before Sir Alex Ferguson sold him to Blackburn.
7) Fergie and the untouched knee
Married to the former Cathy Holding for 45 years after first encountering her in a meeting to arrange a strike at the typewriter factory where they both worked, Sir Alex Ferguson has one of the strongest marriages in football.
Which meant the press were immediately sceptical when, in October 2002, 21-year-old software technician Nadia Abrahams told South African police that Fergie had touched her knee and invited her back to his hotel after she offered him a lift when his car was involved in a 2am traffic accident near Cape Town's Waterfront district.
After all, Fergie's only previous brush with anything approaching a sex scandal had come when he was quoted as describing a former player's penis as "not just big, it's magnificent", mystifyingly annoying the recipient of the praise, Dion Dublin.
Sir Alex strongly denied any wrongdoing in South Africa and though Abrahams and boyfriend Brian Ebden managed to sell their story for £75,000, the case was dropped shortly after reports emerged claiming Abrahams had "flaunted herself at Sir Alex, dancing round and around him in circles" after spotting him in the upmarket Mannenburg's jazz club while the United manager "was behaving like a total gentleman all night".
6) Ronaldo, Anderson and "no-holds-barred" spanking
Before September 2007, the public thought Cristiano Ronaldo's idea of fun was, in his memorable phrase, "putting a television high in a tree outside and kicking footballs at it".
Then came allegations that the Portuguese winger had organised an orgy at his Cheshire home, inviting two team-mates and five hookers.
Busy Brazilian prostitute Juliana Baltrusch claimed to have performed a sex act on Nani, dirty-danced with Ronaldo and later enjoyed a no-holds-barred spanking session with Rolph-from-the-Muppets lookalike Anderson.
A year earlier, the Brazilian midfielder had been the subject of a tabloid kiss-and-tell in which 20-year-old model Leah Houghton claimed Anderson had chatted her up with the words "f*** f*** f***", after which she had sex with him on a toilet.
5) Wayne Rooney, the Auld Slapper and the younger slappers
No wonder he lost his hair so quickly.
Having been a customer at Liverpool massage parlour Divas in his Everton days - sending one girl a note of thanks reading: "I shagged you on December 26, loads of love, Wayne" and famously enjoying the services of 52-year-old PVC-clad mum of seven Tricia 'Auld Slapper' Tierney - the spud-faced nipper was thought to have cleaned up his act after then-fiancee Coleen McLoughlin angrily threw her engagement ring into a squirrel sanctuary.
After his move to United, Rooney's penchant for grappling grandmas was immortalised in the Everton chant: "Auld Slapper is a prossie, She plays with dirty toys, And when she shags Wayne Rooney, She thinks of Davie Moyes".
Alas, September last year brought revelations that Rooney had been paying Manchester prostitute Jennifer Thompson £1,200 a time for sex, once allowing Thompson's like-minded chum Helen Wood to join them for a threesome and a lesbian show.
Coleen forgave, as only she can, and the most shocking element of the whole farrago was thought by many to be the £200 Wayne paid a hotel employee to bring him a packet of cigarettes while sampling Juicy Jeni's dubious charms.
4) George Best, Miss World and the mink coat
A swordsman of Beattyesque proportions in early 1970s Manchester, Bestie wisely opened two private clubs - Slack Alice and Oscar's - where his roistering would go unreported.
Memorable incidents that evaded the press included celebrity lawyer George Carman, who had helped clear his friend of slapping waitress Stevie Sloniecka and breaking her nose, marching up to him in Oscar's and declaring: "George Best, you blackguard. You've been f***ing my wife."
When Best was not in his Mancunian bubble, however, all bets were off.
In February 1974, he was photographed leaving London society club Tramp with reigning Miss World Marjorie Wallace, then engaged to Formula One racing driver Peter Revson.
The scandal deepened when Best returned to Manchester without her after a row, only to be arrested in Slack's at 3am and brought back to London's Wood Lane police station, where he was charged with burglary of her flat and the theft of a £2,000 mink coat, jewellery and spirits.
Wallace was stripped of her title and Best advised that he could go to prison.
But on March 22, five days before Best was due in court, Revson was killed in practice for the South African Grand Prix.
Wallace flew back to the States and the case collapsed.
3) Ryan Giggs becomes Tiger Woods
"I can’t believe it, he’s such a family man," said Giggs' agent Harry Swales when the jug-eared Quorn enthusiast was finally revealed as having taken out an injunction to quash stories of a fling with topless Big Brother mopsy Imogen Thomas.
The phrase could hardly have been more unfortunate given further claims of an eight-year affair with brother Rhodri's wife, Natasha.
Now, there's talk of a third woman and the emergence of fascinating details from the past, including his dalliance with PR girl Caroline Stanbury during his courting of Stacey and the rumoured existence of a city centre pad, known as Giggsy's Corner, where conquests could be taken.
2) Martin Edwards blows the toilet doors off
Manchester United chairman Martin Edwards had long been regarded as a lucky man.
Having failed to sell off a controlling stake in the Red Devils to ball-juggling UFO abductee Michael Knighton for £20m in 1989, the butcher's son then sat back and reaped the Premier League riches, even brushing off dalliances with prostitutes in Brazil and Switzerland, who gave him stinging reviews including "he was old and like a grandad" and "it took four hours to make love and it wasn't very good".
However, that luck ran out in scandalous fashion late in 2002 when the dad-of-two received a police caution after allegedly being caught peering under a cubicle door in the ladies' loos at Cheshire's swanky Mottram Hall hotel.
More allegations followed and former United security chief Ned Kelly later claimed to have been briefed to follow Edwards at the club's post-1996 FA Cup final party as "his visits to the ladies are becoming more frequent".
Wrote Kelly: "It had been a constant source of amusement to the players and ground staff, but it was undeniably embarrassing. He just seemed to have a compulsion to invade the space of women in their most private moments."
Edwards left the United board shortly afterwards and by 2003 had sold off his stake in United for £80m, although he remains an honorary life president of the club and was part of their sparsely-attended and rain-sodden 19th title parade around Manchester.
1) Tommy Docherty and the physio's wife
It's a 'What if...' double whammy which perplexes United fans and journalists even today: Would Manchester United have broken Liverpool's late 1970s and 1980s stranglehold on the title had Tommy Docherty not been sacked in July 1977?
And how many acres of newsprint would be expended on the story today had a contemporary Old Trafford boss left his wife and four children for the physio's missus on the eve of the FA Cup final?
Despite offering to resign at the club's victorious banquet after beating Liverpool at Wembley, The Doc initially survived the furore and was holidaying in the Lake District, contemplating plans to sign Peter Shilton and the mercurial Tony Currie, when the axe finally fell.
Rumours claimed Docherty had been a victim of WAG power in the shape of letters to chairman Louis Edwards from players' wives demanding his dismissal - hardly surprising as the manager had made his share of dressing room and backroom enemies during five turbulent years in which he eased out Bobby Charlton, brutally dumped George Best and Denis Law and fell out with the likes of Alex Stepney and Gerry Daly.
In came safe pair of hands Dave Sexton and Docherty's thrillingly cavalier side, starring midfield schemer Lou Macari, wingers Gordon Hill and Steve Coppell and barrel-chested striker Stuart 'Pancho' Pearson, was about to be broken up.
The Doc himself started ultimately unsuccessful legal proceedings against Edwards for defamation and wrongful dismissal, announcing his decision while sporting a black eye given to him by cuckolded magic-sponge man Laurie Brown, to whose ex-wife Mary Docherty has now been married for nearly 30 years.
United fans mourned their loss with this creative reworking of Knees Up Mother Brown: "Who's up Mary Brown? Who's up Mary Brown? Tommy, Tommy Docherty."
