Manchester United bossSir Alex Ferguson has slated the advisers working forBlackburn Rovers' new owners.

Ferguson still can't believe their decision to sack good friend Sam Allardyce.

Shaking his head in apparent disbelief, Sir Alex said: "If Sam had won last Sunday, they’d have gone fifth in the League. But he still got sacked because they said they should be fourth! ‘You’ve got an issue at Blackburn where an agent is said to be involved and deciding the future of the club.

"Jerome Anderson? He couldn’t pick his nose. It’s baffling, and it’s a serious threat to how clubs are run and how they conduct themselves.

"The unfortunate thing is, it’s actually becoming quite trendy to sack a manager in difficult circumstances and I just wonder whether Blackburn thought, 'You know, if Newcastle can do it by sacking Chris Hughton, we can do it'. I don’t know the answers to it, but what I can say is that a manager’s job, whatever he’s getting paid, it’s not worth it."
