Hairdryer treatment over the phone

Snooker legend Ken Doherty had an embarrassingly awkward conversation with Manchester United's iconic manager Sir Alex Ferguson after winning the World Championship.

Dohert won his only world title in 1997 by defeating Stephen Hendry at the Crucible and became the toast of Ireland as he returned home for an open-top bus parade in Dublin.

The Darlin' of Dublin's triumph also caught many other esteemed figures' attention and was thus invited to showcase his trophy in another momentous occasion.

Crafty Ken received an unexpected phone call from snooker fanFerguso who offered him the opportunity to present his title at Old Trafford on the last match of the 1996-97 Premier League season.

However, the phone call went completely south as the Irishman suspected it was a prank from one of his mates and proceeded to drop an F-bomb to one of the greatest managers of all time.

I got a phone call a week later. I didn't recognise the number, the voice went [does an impression of Ferguson], 'Kenny, do you fancy coming and parading that trophy around Old Trafford?'

I told him to f*** off! I thought it was one of my mates winding me up.

He said again, 'Kenny, it's Alex Ferguson here, I'm not going to ask you a second time'.

"So I had to apologise. Not many people have said that to him and got away with it! But he saw the funny side. He loves snooker.

Andre Onana advice - EXCLUSIVE

Former Chelsea ace Geremi has told Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana to block out the abuse and back himself as the team's No1.

Onana's former Cameroon team-mate has now slammed trolls who have targeted the 29-year-old and says some have crossed the line.

Every player has to accept criticism, but with Onana people go beyond that and even attack his family.

Fifa does not allow that. Fifa frowns on discrimination and insults. This has to stop.

Onana must believe in himself, he is Manchester United’s No 1. He needs to shut out the noise.

He’s done well to get to this level. Now he just has to block out the negativity.

Rasmus Hojlund swap

Manchester United's struggling ace Rasmus Hojlund could be offered a potential escape route by former club Atalanta - and that could see a partial swap deal bringingAdemola Lookmanback to the Premier League.
