Tevez Says Gill And Fergie To Blame

New Boo Camp motor mouth Carlos Tevez puts the blame for leaving United firmly at the door of Ferguson and Gill. This from yesterday's press conference at his unveiling at Wastelands:

"The first thing United's fans have to understand is that a part of my heart will always be with them," Tevez said.
"They were very supportive and they always made me feel good even when I wasn't playing so I will always keep that in my heart. The second point is that the reason I did not stay at United was nothing to do with the fans. It was because Alex Ferguson and David Gill did not want to keep me there.

"Over two years there was only one time he [Ferguson] contacted me.

"When somebody doesn't talk to you, or make any effort to contact you over two years, then to expect an SMS message to be returned is out of the question. There was no line of communication and I don't think this is the way to treat a player who has been at the club for two years."
