Sir Alex Ferguson was not among those impressed with the promotion of FC United, the breakaway club formed in the wake of US tycoon Malcolm Glazer's takeover, at the first time of asking.

FC United made the step up to the North West counties Division One earlier this week, but Fergie remained tightlipped when asked to comment on the achievement. "Who?" was the Manchester United boss's first response to questions about the rebels, who are bossed by milkman Karl Marginson.

When he finally realised who he was being asked to talk about. Fergie's mood darkened. "You're joking. I'm not interested," he said before bringing yet another abrupt end to a press conference.
