Sad [oops] that I am I was surprised that Rio`s off the ball kick at Torres was not reported, also the tone of the first report (6.20am UK time) was Rafa was to blame for reporting to Journos that Fergie did not shake his hand?
Now through the power of twitter i contacted Jacquie Beltrao the Sports presenter and aksed why it was being shown this way and in Rio`s case not reported at all, I stated if Saurez had kicked a defender it would have been the lead story.
She responded several times and we had a decent conversation, end result was the next big bulletin the Fergie non handshake was reflected the correct way and Rio`s Kick was also shown stating he would probably get a fine etc..
Fair play to her, didn`t take offence to being questioned and changed the contents to reflect a valid point. Perhaps abusing Sky etc.. is not the way to go? asking nicely might do it? or as I expect i`m deluded lol

I'm not sure that the presenters get any say in the matter....they just read what's in front of them, surely?

They obviously do because she has changed things before, only time she ommits some stuff is when they tell her she has less time than the previous bullitin.
Also had a few chats with the BBC sports presnter woman Sally and she`s ok but her male counterpart Mike Bushell is a right turd. He says his inability to do anything sporty, his lack of knowledge on most sports and not even being able to pronounce some famous sports stars name is very good.! says it shows others that you don`t need to be sporty to be a sports presenter.!!

It's just shoddy, cowardly, biased journalis. All Rafa did was give a pretty frank answer to a question posed to him. He's very relaxed and humourous. see the clip in the link copied above.

Yet even this article spins it as 'Benitez re-ignites feud'... I also read 'Benitez furious' somewhere. Load of nonsense.

The truth is that journalists are too scared to take on Fergie for his behaviour. Everyone knows this as is obvious by what the way Rafa answers the question and the response he got.
