Following on from the comments made by Mourinho describing AW as a Voyeur etc, I read this article in The Times today written by Matt Dickenson, their Chief Football Correspondent.
I was stunned by what was printed at the end of the second paragraph and have quoted a part of the section below, along with the link to the full article.

[b]but in the light of the appalling and unfounded rumours that have circulated for years about Wenger, the connotations that could be read into Mourinho’s remarks made it a dangerous choice of words. [/b]
I realise that I am skating on VERY thin ice in even bringing this to the forum's attention because simply by asking if anyone has any idea what these 'appalling' rumours that have circulated for years may be I could accused of helping to spread them.
But how can I read something like that, written by a so-called 'respected' journalist, and not wonder what on earth it could be?
If you people feel this is a potato too hot to touch and the moderators decide to close this thread almost immediately I shall respect that decision 100%. But if anyone out there can shed some light on this in a sensitive, sensible manner I would appreciate it. Up until now the worst I have heard said about AW is that he is 'scholarly', aloof, stubborn and a football anorak. Now while that may not make him the life and soul of a party it certainly doesn’t amount anything else.
I repeat – if you supporters want this thread ‘binned’ then let’s do it. But if you can enlighten me or point me in the right direction (even by private email to me) then I’d appreciate that because I am simply baffled.

ops:. But it annoyed me that he brought up that stupid chant as a 'rumour' because as wheelyfar has shown by posting this it just makes some people put a question mark on Arsène.
