They use United as an easy, headline-producing cash cow, and when the cow refuses to comply they don't like it. So they trot out this crap about 'the fans, oh think of the fans', and people fall for their ploy. 'He's letting us down!', they say. Why?

Fergie isn't being childish at all imo, he's simply fed up with the media applying completely different standards to United's players than they to do everyone else's. They lynched Rooney for a medium-strength elbow in a week when one player shot someone and another failed a drugs test. Now another has cut a player's leg to the bone and there's barely a peep out of them. And the moment he speaks to them, they're outraged by mild criticism of an absolutely shocking referee.

£#%&! them all backwards. I hope he blanks them for the next ten years.

Apologies not required.
