Manchester United legend Sir Alex Ferguson famously fell out with Paul Ince but quickly amended matters with a six-word message.
But one run-in with the fiery Scotsman caused a 48-hour rift between the pair that Ferguson eventually patched up with his quick wit.“They were a very, very good team and I think we won the game 3-0 or 3-1, and with about five minutes to go I had the ball and I went on a little mazy run and I lost the ball, they went up the pitch and nearly scored.
“I’m thinking ‘Where’s this come from?’ and me being me I bit back, we’d just beat title contenders comfortably at Carrow Road and I’ve had a decent game." “Sir Alex shouts ‘ball was out’ but it wasn’t out, but because I wasn’t speaking to him I couldn’t say anything, it was just bubbling inside me, but because I hadn't talked to him in 48 hours I couldn’t contest the decision and he said ‘winners them’.”"I turned around and he said: ‘There’s only one Guv'nor here, son!’ and I started to laugh and after that we were speaking again and that was it. That was the greatness of the man.
