coming late to work

Quote:
Manchester United staff have put the clocks forward by seven minutes at the club's training ground as they look to stop players turning up late for their 1000 GMT exercise session. Daily Mirror

most likely a bs story but comapare it to this

Quote:
Mark Bosnich The Australian was re-signed in 1999, he arrived late for his first training session. Fergie was away, but Roy Keane wasn't and sneered: 'Your first fucking day at United and you turn up an hour late for fucking training.'

so do you think that work ethic has changed dramatically and players come in late? i don't really think so.

on the other hand - how creactive journos became, you wuldn't expect anybody to come up with such a load of shit. and the fact it got published makes it even funny.

Doubt it, just ask Fletcher. Used to be a slacker but now comes into early to do extra training.
