Paul Waugh tweeted from the PM’s press conference this morning

“I can’t type for laughing. Gordon is attacking football clubs for jacking up debts beyond their income.”

So Guido thought a bit of evidence based blogging in order:

Manchester United, the red team led by Alex Ferguson, a Labour supporting Scot, is having a difficult time yet managed to sell off an asset (Ronaldo) and show a profit of £78 million on revenue of £278 million.

This disunited government, a red team managed by Gordon Brown, a Labour Party leading Scot, failed to cut expenditure and as a result has a deficit of some £180 billion on tax revenues of £465 billion.

It just isn’t funny.  Gordon is in no position to lecture the football clubs on financial management.
