Rio Ferdinand slams David Moyes for banning them from eating chips!
Rio Ferdinand has a chip on his shoulder when it comes to David Moyes' Manchester United reign... about the lack of fries!
The former Red Devils defender has launched a scathing attack on the ex-Old Trafford manager on nearly every aspect of his tenure.
And that includes the canteen where Moyes banned his Man United players from eating chips, and that was the last straw for Rio.
"We loved our chips, but Moyes comes in and, after his first week, he says we can’t have chips any more," he reveals in his book #2Sides - serialised in the Sun..
Ferdinand claims the chips were low-fat and a staple part of life under Sir Alex Ferguson but that Moyes scrapped them as soon as he was made manager.

TB Joshua: Boko Haram attacked Church building!!
The founder and General overseer of the Synagogue Church of All Nations, Prophet T. B. Joshua has said that Boko Haram may be responsible for the collapse of a six-storey building in the church premises.
Joshua, who told members of his church on Sunday not to be afraid, said the attack was targeted at him and not at them. The prophet made it clear that the collapse of the six-storey building at around 11.45am on Friday which led to the death of no fewer than 16 persons was a Boko Haram attack.
The popular Prophet said: “I received a phone call immediately I got here, just 10 minutes later when I was in the church, that there was a jet hovering over the mountain where I had just left. They said it was hovering at a close range. Before I knew it, I received another phone call that the same jet was now at the church hovering over the building, passing it four times at a very close range before the building collapsed.”...MORE...

Jonathan, Ihejirika Supervised Foreign Invasion of Nigeria’s Oil Rich Northeast
The strong caption is a clear as it can be. But rest assured we would not make such declaration if we were not absolutely confident of our findings. First I say “Ameen” to the prayers of the oppressed Chibok Angels in Sambisa who the Lord heard and opened our eyes to see the truth through all the purposeful noise from the Presidency, accusing our brave and patriotic retired Generals of terror they were actually perpetrating and supervising. Next I thank Dr. Stephen Davis for being brave and decent enough to lead us along the road to freedom from terror.
Nigeria’s north has been under a supervised foreign invasion and President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan knows about it. We are convinced beyond doubt that the Nigerian intelligence department knows the oil rich northeast is under foreign invasion because this is common knowledge to all other global intelligence departments and we have evidence to prove.
