Absolute craziness on the night of the transfer deadline!
Sir Alex Ferguson was the getaway driver in an astonishing smash-and-grab raid for Dimitar Berbatov that left Spurs seething last night.
On a dramatic transfer deadline day, Tottenham claimed United had illegally hijacked Manchester City’s surprise £34million bid for striker Berbatov – which was accepted – with Ferguson meeting him at Manchester Airport without Spurs’ permission.
Ferguson drove Berbatov in his Bentley a little later with the player apparently hidden under a cover on the rear seats.
City, suddenly cash-rich after a takeover by Abu Dhabi United Group, moved in at breakfast-time. But after Ferguson’s move, Spurs chairman Daniel Levy was considering reporting United to the Premier League for the second time this summer and was not ruling out legal action.

I can’t belive those c%$ts have got away with it. Campbell should have been a permanent to make up for the tapping up, not just a season loan. Can the FA persue it without Tottenham complaining themselves - game into disripute etc?
Red nosed w$%*ker.
