Jason McAteer went on a bit of a social media rant last week, prior to Manchester United’s first meeting with Liverpool this season. A painfully embarrassing one.
I’m not saying professionals shouldn’t express themselves with swear words when I use them every day, but former Liverpool player Jason McAteer‘s foul-mouthed replies to United fans last week were an episode on their own.
It was sort of funny to see an ex-professional lose the rag and sound utterly clueless.
Then for Manchester United to go and knock Liverpool out of the FA Cup.
Sucker-punch!
Scott Patterson, editor and founder of Manchester United blog Republik of Mancunia, brought attention to some quotes from one of McAteer’s little rants after today’s 3-2 win over the Scousers in the FA Cup.
And it seems like the former Republic of Ireland international will be regretting a few words he made over the past week…
Oi, Jason, is that a false position in the next round for United too? @MCATEER4 pic.twitter.com/CkglO6r4Xh

In a successful attempt to extract the urine, Scott points to his quote about United being in a ‘false position’ at the top of the Premier League.
Does that apply to the fifth-round of the FA Cup, mate?
