Fans forced Richardson out
-
Sir Alex Ferguson claims opposition to Kieran Richardson from Manchester United fans forced him to sell him to Sunderland.
The United chief says it was better for the player to move on after he came in for stick from some sections of the Old Trafford faithful.
He let Richardson move to the Stadium of Light in a £5.5million switch in the summer, so linking up with former United team-mate Roy Keane at the Stadium of Light.
Ferguson told the Sunday Express: "I let him go mainly because some fans were getting on his back and I don't like that.
"Kieran has great ability but he isn't going to flourish if he hasn't got everyone behind him.
"So when Sunderland made a good offer, I decided to accept and send him on his way with our best wishes." -

I was
ing when i saw Richardson playing his first EPL match for Sunderland. He was nowhere near the 5.5-6 million Keano splashed out on him! Not even worth a million pound!
Cheers.
