What it isn't all about

As both United and City have shown a tendency to choke this season, we're no longer obliged to feign awe at the complex mind games crackling away in their respective dug-outs. At last, it has dawned on some breathless sections of the media that Ferguson versus Mancini isn't Frost-Nixon or Fischer-Karpov.

Perhaps Mr Milton has somehow transported himself to an alternate universe, where the 1975 match actually took place??

A little learning, surely?

The Richard in this instance is the brother of the present commentor.
