I agree with you about King Kenny though... looks like he's got blinders on to the world.
Well I know all that but his heart is in the right place if you get me.

I disagree with cancelling handshakes. If you are going to play against another player for millions per year, you should be able to shake their hand at the start of the match in an agreement to playing against each other fairly (as that is what the pre-match handshakes are about). If you can't respect each other on that basic a level, then you shouldn't be playing against each other. Whoever declines the handshake should just not play.
I agree. Cancelling handshakes is a way of saying to everyone that we have failed when it came to fair play. Just because the likes of JT and his mishaps we shouldn't neglect the thousands of handshakes that have gone on before the game. Besides, it's an extra bit of drama to a game, nothing wrong with that!

Rooney and Giggs have turned out to be not the greatest of role models yes, but their controversies happened outside of football. It's harsh putting blame on Fergie when he hasn't had to deal with these things directly. As for Keane, the man was a bit of a lunatic, but he's a good man at the end of the day ala Craig Bellamy. He hasn't done anything apart from a bad tackle or mental moment to warrant him a bad person.
