You can argue that its never that serious but for one Man-U fan its that serious. The old Trafford’s fans are currently the laughing stock of town and the subject of trolling.
Greater Manchester Police (GMP) were called at 22:30 GMT on Wednesday by a man from Crumpsall after the team lost to Sunderland in the Capital One Cup.
GMP said it “can be sad and depressing” when a football team loses a game but asked the public to “remember that 999 is to be used for emergencies only”.
The force suggested contacting the club to speak to the former manager.
Manchester United lost 2-1 on penalties in the semi-final of the competition at Old Trafford under new manager David Moyes.
The man opened the call by asking to speak to Mr Ferguson before telling the call handler: “The result is all wrong, they had extra time and it was a total and utter load of rubbish.”
After being asked if he needed to report a crime, the caller replied: “Yes, a crime. I want to report a crime. The crime is that Manchester United were absolutely knackered.”
Knackered indeed.
