STOKE WERE GIVEN a heads up from the unlikeliest of sources ahead of their game against Man United last Saturday – Coleen Rooney.
The wife of Wayne Rooney let slip via Twitter that she was at home watching a Beyoncé DVD with the the England striker on Friday, while the rest of the Man United team were in a hotel preparing for their game against Stoke.
Ferguson’s presumable frustration at Coleen for prematurely revealing that Rooney would play no part in the game was exacerbated by the on-field behaviour of Peter Crouch who, he claims, receives preferential treatment from referees.
The United boss said:
“He gets off with it because of his height but he jumps on top of defenders all the time. He has been doing that for a long time.”
