Manchester City have apologised to Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson after striker Carlos Tevez held up a banner goading his former manager.
Tevez has also expressed his regret after he was pictured with a sign which read 'RIP Fergie' during City's celebratory title-winning parade in Manchester.
The 28-year-old is thought to have been passed or thrown the banner by a fan as City's open-top bus made its way through the city centre with the squad and the Barclays Premier League trophy.
A City spokeswoman said: "The creation of the tasteless material is in itself reprehensible and in accepting and brandishing it, Carlos has made a significant error of judgement.
"The club wishes to express its sincerest apologies to Sir Alex Ferguson and Manchester United Football Club for any offence or distress caused."
The sign may have been a reference to a remark by Ferguson three years ago when asked if United would ever be underdogs against City.
"Not in my lifetime," the Scot said.
Tevez, who spent two years at Old Trafford before leaving for City in 2009, said: "I got carried away in the excitement of the moment and I certainly didn't mean any disrespect to Sir Alex Ferguson, who I admire as a man and a manager."
City pipped arch rivals United to the title on goal difference after a dramatic last-gasp 3-2 win over QPR on the final day of the season.
PR department has its work cut out trying to contain this vermin.Quote:

I won't dwell on this anymore because people obviously get angry when I say it, but some (not all) of the criticisms against City seem based on extreme bitterness, prejudice and snobbery. It's like when a binman wins the lottery and starts splashing the cash and the respectable, establishment classes turn their noses up at this "conspicuous consumption" and irritating that these "nouveau riche" don't know there place.
Another city apology, how many is that now? Since Sunday I mean?
That's a stupid comparison because in life there is no sense of competition and what is fair. And life is inherently unfair.
In sport the ideal should be a level playing field. May the best man/team win.
If it's just about may the club with the most money win then what's the point? Where's the sense of achievement?
Football used to be a sport, you know.
It isn't City's fault that the game is like this. They're not the first to do it. Neither were Chelsea actually although they took it to a new level and City have gone even further.
I'm not jealous of City because I don't recognise what they've done as an achievement and I wouldn't want Arsenal to buy trophies so overtly.
How many anti-City posts have you made? You're so consumed by Citeh hate that you can't even accept that Barton deserved to get sent off. I probably wouldn't have made so many posts if the posts critical of City didn't degenerate into petty bigotry and class prejudice (in general, not specifically talking about your posts)Quote:

Not really. People hate Citeh, like they hated Chelsea before them, for taking the soul out of the game they love. Don't get me wrong, there have lways been the haves and the have nots, and we were fortunate to be amongst the haves back in the day. But even in the early 00's our success was as much down to the way in which our manager innovated/played the game, and SAF has been the same - generally getting more out of his teams than the sum of their parts.Quote:

Because of their mental togetherness and endeavour? No. Because they can buy 2 of the best players on the planet for each position.
Citeh have subverted the romance of football. They weren't the first to do so and they are the product of the times. But they are the most high profile culprit, and that is why they are despised by many fans.
Didn't realise it was your job to defend city on an Arsenal forum. Nice one!Quote:

And i guess it depends on the Binman's behaviour once he turns rich if he is snobish or not now.

What a load of PC bollocks. Most would just laugh it off. It is a joke at the expense of the person who sold him. Big fucking deal.Quote:

Amen to that. Political correctness is the scourge of our times!Quote:

Then hold a sign Saying RIP UTD nout wrong with that. But fergie never treated the lad like shit, he wanted to keep him it was the glazers who did not want to give the money for him.Quote:

But the ****s bought it, everyone knows that.
Well, the stadium wasn't even built for them, so I'm not sure I follow on that point.
Except that it is bollocks. Citeh had to sell the club to someone else, Shinawatra wasn't named Dodgy Frank for being a clean guy.Quote:

He was pretty gracious today though. Mind you with Nasri flapping his fat gob a chimpanzee masturbating on the altar at a funeral would be dignified.Quote:

Well that fucks my argument out the window then. Didn't know that so I'm changing my mind, Gallagher is a ****.Quote:
