'Sir Alex nearly threw me off the bus!' - McClaren

Steve McClaren recalled revealing his boyhood Leeds United allegiance to Sir Alex Ferguson when he was his number two at Manchester United.

"We were going down to Elland Road, and everybody's giving us dog's abuse," said McClaren, "Sir Alex says: 'Look at that Steve, that is a disgrace.' I said: 'Yeah, I used to be one of them.'"

Sir Alex wasn't impressed with Steve's choice of team.

"He almost made me walk the last mile to the stadium," added McClaren.
