Not really, it's just another way to have a go at Giggs, I'm surprised no one mentioned Mourhino yet.
"News just in, Ryan Giggs sleeps in oxygen tent, which he believes gives him sexual powers"
We only know about the stories that make it into the media, Im sure there are many more cases, hushed up by secrecy payments or legal blocks.
I think Giggs has a problem in this area, much like Tiger Woods did.
Regardless, I don't see how a man with so much scandalous baggage can ever be our manager. The constant sniggering would be an impossible distraction.

it wasn't me
How can it be a sacking issue that someone vandalised his house?
Or do you think people should lose their jobs for "flirting" with someone who isnt their wife?
Seriously, the man is definitely an arsehole and a womaniser but there is nothing new in this story today, in terms of his own behaviour. He's had a string of affairs and the club has (rightly) decided it is none of its business, it is a personal matter. Today we get news his wife has had enough and left... and? How is that anything to do with the club?
If we start sacking people for cheating on their wives we will soon be unable to field a team.
Probably loved his Mrs very much at some point in time. Things change. Tbh his personal life is his personal life, feck all to do with anyone his isn't in his personal life.
Giggs did make a public apology last year.
I think there might be an argument that its not good for the clubs image. People have affairs and its not a sackable offence, you're 100% right, but when your private life starts to impact your employer then it is no longer a personal matter. Im sure there is examples out there.
Im not trying to say he should be, but it might happen. You dont agree, thats ok.
We'd better cancel Martial's contract then.
Feel for the kids and his brother. I idolised Ryan growing up. It's sad to see what he is now.
Fair point well made. Rooney too. But the Giggs thing is lingering a while. Surely his reputation is gone beyond repair.
Everything goes at this club, even looking under the women's toilets. Poking someone in the eye though
I don't think that it's impacting the Glazers or Woodward.
I can see how it would dissuade them from giving him a promotion. I think the club would be putting itself in a very dangerous position if it sacked him for it though. I dont know much about the law but I cant see how that would be legal. And even if it was legal in theory, it would be singling him out for something that the whole bloody industry is doing - theyre all at it, theyre notorious. I mean, Im sure that is a generalisation and a lot of footballers are faithful and love their wives, but the fact is we are talking about hundreds of super rich, young men, who arent allowed to drink or take drugs, but have women throwing themselves at them all the time and spend large amounts of time away from home. If Giggs got sacked that would be opening a door that would lead nowhere good. It would set a precedent, either they would have to be consistent and have a policy on behaviour at home - which would be ridiculous - or Giggs is going to rightly point out he has been held to a different standard.
Like I said, I actually know dick all about the law but I cant see how this could happen - and nor do I think it should. If the club is worried about its reputation they should take him out the limelight: certainly dont make him manager, dont put him in front of journalists or make him a public face of the club. But it doesnt seem like the club is thinking in those terms at all, and if it was it should have taken that decision before when he actually did something awful, not when his missus decided to leave him.
"artist"
Him too?
Man, I don't keep up at all.
To be fair to Giggsy, there are a lot of players who are not beyond reproach and have a bit of dirt from the past; Martial, van Persie, Rooney, Young, Valencia to name but a few have all made lurid headlines in recent times. Cole and Yorke had a few stories in their time too. Most clubs, if not all have a fair amount of unsavoury characters that would keep the papers in business.
Can't even begin to Imogen how tough this must be for Giggs
Probably what he always was to be fair. We just didnt realise it. Just a prick of a man.
Still though, he had Dani Bahr in her prime. Probably a bigger honour than winning the Treble.
If Gordon Ramsay survived his porn dwarf double being eaten by a badger scandal, Giggsy can survive this.
Wouldn't touch her now and I love my cougars
Surely there is a difference? Giggs is 42 and is therefore supposed to be more mature. He is one of the most decorated British players ever and is attempting to be United manager. People grow up watching their manager and looking up to them, just as they did for SAF. In which case, surely it is best not to make him manager? Is it a good idea to make the main man at the largest English club there is such a disgusting person?
There is a contrast between him and Martial, Martial is 20 and not trying to be our manager.

As a Premier League footballer I'm sure he didn't give a hoot what people thought, and being a coach behind the scenes isn't much different.
But the manager is essentially the foremost public face for any football club, and as the manager of one of the biggest sporting institutions in the world, he won't have the luxury of not caring.
he didn't seems to regret things by the looks of it, having your affair for 8 years with your in laws got blown up is good enough to scar you for life, but hey... the show must go on eh? There's other woman to pleasure
Yep. And that seems to be his problem.
Very silly to compare what Giigs did to Martial.
This is not news. If the club felt it impacted his job or the club's name they would have acted ages ago. Clearly they don't.
Havent seen her, and I cant bring myself to google her upon reading your post.
The principle is the same. If people want to moralise they can't be selective.
I just did and it is not good.
Well, he's no different than what happens probably is nearly every street and avenue in the UK to be honest, but he's in the limelight, privileged, part of the arguably the biggest club in the world and world famous - so he has to accept that whatever he does will be magnified a thousand times and there will be plenty of people ready to exploit it. I really feel for Stacey his loyal wife and for his kids, but the guy is probably a bit of a sex addict now fuelled even more by the lack of adrenalin he lost when he stopped playing ( I doubt assistant manager compensates much). I mean...how many footballers are doing this right now and still to be caught? However, I would imagine that he's probably got to make a serious decision to leave United while his legendary playing status can still be held higher than his misdemeanors off the pitch!
Maybe an insight to him knowing he aint getting the job, and thought 'feck it'? Or, as I mentioned in the other thread, he really is a bit of a dime bar
That's still good enough for me.
TBF without being a hypocrite, you can do all kinds of shits as a celebrity, you just don't get caught.
If you get caught, you'll be crucified for it.
That's just the rules of the game, if this is Mourinho/Wenger/Saf/Kaka/Xavi etc we'd still be calling them a cnut. Let's not go overboard with our legend, he's a cnut. To say what he does in his private life has nothing to do with us is just plain hypocrisy.
This yoga really does sound like the sh&^*!!! I might have to give it ago.. Guard your women from now, you don't want me in there.. not going to feel the same after i'm done.
Which makes Giggs a bit of a hypocrite then as he's no better than his dad.
In any case, I feel bad for his kids. Think his little girl is almost 13. It's one of the worst ages for a girl when you're growing up, and now she has this added shit happening with her dad. Shame.
