Fergie Against Nets

15 December 2012 08:21
Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson and his Liverpool counterpart Brendan Rodgers have both slammed talk of using safety nets at Premier League grounds.

 

The PFA have made noises about having nets installed after there have been a few incidents lately of things being thrown onto the pitch aimed at players.

Rio Ferdinand was a victim of this mindless activity when he caught a coin with his head after it had been thrown by a City fans who couldn't take defeat on the chin.

But Fergie feels like the move to get netting installed would be a step too far.

He told the Press Association: “I know you see netting behind the goal in some grounds.

“(Borussia) Dortmund have that and there have been a couple of occasions where it’s happened.

“It happened at Chelsea and then here (at City) but it’s not a consistent thing. Stewarding is a better policy I think.”
