Rio Ferdinand has been criticised by Newcastle United fans for hypocrisy when it comes to his complaints with Manchester United’s owners - The Glazers. Ferdinand, who won countless trophies with Man United, was left angry after he watched them get hammered four-nil at Brentford on Saturday.
The one-time England international went on to criticise the Glazer Family for being absent in the midst of a crisis - which was a similar question Geordies had over Mike Ashley for the most part of his 14-year ownership of Newcastle.
Back in 2021, just months before Ashley finally sold United to the Saudi-led consortium, Ferdinand criticised Toon fans, even urging them to ‘take over the club’ themselves.
