As reported in the BBC gossip column this morning:

"Pampered Manchester United stars have had a hi-tech noticeboard installed in their dressing room informing them when they are scheduled for pedicures, massages and haircuts. (The Sun)" :duh:

This, to me, sounds like the nadir of that pampered and money-centric competition, the EPL. MUsa just seem to be bringing its reputation to new lows. Perhaps this is included in their player contracts!

Given the credit crunch and the real world that most of the rest of us have to live through, I suspect that modern-day professional footballers are even more removed from reality than are government ministers!

Does this sound like the straw that finally broke the camel's back to you?

Somehow I think this is bullshit. It doesn't accord with Fergie's way of doing things.

The world went mad when Liverpool decided to give John Barnes £10k a week. I mean seriously, wtf is that about? Eek

Darren Fletcher, please report to supercuts immediately, your trainee is waiting to muller your hair even more.

I think it's a good idea. We should have one, specifically for Benoit Assou Ekotto.

If this board exists I'm pretty sure it is simply to remind Man Utd players about appointments for anything. The fact this could be for haircuts and girly stuff is not important or interesting.

The Sun trying to create interest in something that really isn't remotely interesting but unfortuantely it seems to have worked with some.

And no this is not the beginning of the end.

If I was filthy rich, I wouldn't settle for an electronic notice board to remind me of appointments. I'd want dancing girls singing them to me. While standing on the back on an elephant.

It's probably telling Berba to turn up for the game & not flap his hands around like a tit...or did he only do that with us?
