MANCHESTER, England (Reuters): Sir Alex Ferguson has slammed neighbours Manchester City for the way in which they handled the sacking of his former player Mark Hughes this week.
City have been widely pilloried in the football community for the manner in which the highly-respected Hughes was forced to take control of his team in last Saturday's 4-3 victory over Sunderland before being sacked and replaced by Italian Roberto Mancini immediately after the game.
