According to the FA's website, "On average, 7,000 referees quit football every year at because of the abuse they receive from players and from the sidelines."
English football's governing body wants to stamp out this type of behaviour and this guy can't seem to grasp this very basic concept, which is why the FA always seems to be investigate this idiot's comments. Some players are worse than others when it comes to abusing match officials and managers are no different. This jack*ss is the king of the malcontents.

What type of behaviour. Critiquing their performance? They're well compensated and hear a hell lot worse from the terraces every week. If it's so tough and they're such a sensitive bunch to the "abuse" I'm sure there's plenty of their colleagues that would gladly step into their boots and collect their cheques.
Don't screw up and you won't get criticised. Simple as that. Same as every other profession on the planet.
Long may it continue. Sir Alex, as exemplified by his success has always held people to high standards, and been critical of those that don't meet those standards. That the rest of the sub-ordinates (and let's face it, that's what they are) that pose as managers accept defeat in a meek and mild manner is typical of their track records and their acceptance of less than average performances.
Keep them on their toes. If they've had a crap game then in my books they're as fair game as any of the players on the pitch to be called out for it.
Rooney said it best yesterday.

Oh, and there should have been at least 20 minutes extra time yesterday for the time taken to prepare Drogba's death certificate.
