When did you become a t**t? Ramsey's "moral sense" was outraged by the Argentinians? This would be the same Ramsey whose main tactic was to employ the repulsive dwarf Styles to kick lumps off the opposition (notably the genius, and gentleman, Eusebio) safe in the knowledge that the officials would be too craven to take action against him at Wembley? Which they were.
One of the few managers who was actually more disgusting than Ramsey was Busby, who employed the same player in the same vile role against the same Eusebio just 2 years later at the same venue.
Ramsey and Busby both ended up as knights of the realm, which explains a lot about this country's attititude to football, and in particular stone-age tactics which have guaranteed continued failure for 40 years.
