Giggs FC United Comments To Be Investigated
Manchester United are launching an investigation into a Ryan Giggs interview published in a Russian magazine.
The Sunday Mirror says United have launched an investigation into remarks alleged to have been made by Giggs which suggested the Welsh winger wants to play for FC United, the nonleague club founded by fans in protest at Malcolm Glazer's takeover. Russian mag Total Football reported Giggs saying: "I can't imagine playing for another club. But I can name one - FC United. "This club is very close to me, as many of the supporters who formed it have supported me throughout my career. My brother plays there. If fate calls me to leave Man United, I would only play for this team." When United officials were told about the interview, they asked Giggs for an explanation. He insisted he had not done the interview and the club are looking into the matter. |

His brother played for them, and its no different to Paul Scholes wanting to play for Oldham in the latter years of his career, or Keane wanting to play for Celtic. |

What can the club do? Sack him? He has more than enough money to piss off and play for FC for nowt. Good on him for having some balls to be besides those who have adored him (if indeed he said it) |

Sorry Fred, I couldn't EVER see Giggsy saying that....even if he wanted to play for FC United. It just isn't his style. "If fate calls me.........." |

Wouldn't that be a great tradition if players who would otherwise retire or earn few quid they didn't need from shit clubs because they don't know what else to do simply went to FC for a while?
