Drunken United fan calls 999 and demands to speak to Fergie after cup defeat
Greater Manchester Police said the distressed supporter demanded to speak to former Reds' boss Sir Alex to discuss the result just after the match finished
A drunk Manchester United fan dialled 999 and demanded to speak to Sir Alex Ferguson after the Reds' defeat last night.
Police received the bizarre and amusing call at 10.30pm on Wednesday from a man in Crumpsall, north Manchester.
Moments earlier, United were dumped out of the league cup in dramatic fashion by Sunderland, who won 2-1 on penalties after extra time.
The distressed supporter demanded to speak to former Reds' boss Sir Alex to discuss the result.
Greater Manchester Police released a statement on their GMP Manchester North Facebook page on Thursday morning which read: “Last night, at approximately 10.30pm a man from the Crumpsall area of north Manchester rang 999 in a drunken state demanding to speak to Sir Alex Ferguson about last night’s result.
“Obviously, it can be a sad and depressing moment when you’re football team loses a game, however can we all please remember that 999 is to be used for emergencies only.
“For any other police related enquiries that are not an emergency, you can ring 101.
"If you would like to speak to Sir Alex about recent football results we here at GMP Manchester North can only suggest you try ringing Manchester United FC directly as you will probably (not definitely) have a much better chance of getting through to him there rather than ringing the police."
Typical of the media to withhold Moyes' name...
Oh now that's very good.........
I heard it was Slurgie who was so pissed out of his head that he's demented and was in fact trying to talk to himself.
