Man United boss Ferguson 'suffers assault'
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson was kicked by an attacker in a random attack at a train station on Monday, it was claimed on Tuesday night.
Ferguson had travelled by train to London on Monday afternoon and was allegedly attacked by a man at Euston station.
Ferguson was said to have sustained kicks to the shin and alerted British Transport Police at the station, who subsequently made an arrest.
The Manchester United manager was not badly hurt and attended a function in the capital as planned.
A 40-year-old man has been charged with one count of ABH, one count of assault and one public order offence over the alleged incident. -

'Drunk' admits Sir Alex assault
A "fighting drunk" has admitted punching Sir Alex Ferguson in the groin and headbutting a police community support officer.
Forty-three-year-old Kevin Reynolds pleaded guilty to assaulting the Manchester United manager outside a train station before attacking the officer and racially abusing him.
Reynolds appeared at City of London Magistrates Court and was warned he could be jailed when he is sentenced at a later date at London's Southwark Crown Court. -

Kevin Reynolds, a 43-year-old Scot who was described in court as a homeless "fighting drunk," also admitted to attacking and racially abusing a police officer at the scene.
Ferguson, also from Scotland, was waiting to be picked up outside the train station when the attack occurred Monday afternoon. He had soreness and tenderness after being punched but was not seriously injured.
The City of London Magistrates Court was told that Ferguson thought the man staggering toward him was a beggar. Instead, Reynolds punched him and said, "I'm sorry, Fergie, I did not know it was you."
Reynolds then allegedly chanted, "Fergie, Fergie, shut your mouth" -- a soccer taunt common in Scotland.
The court was told that Reynolds had consumed half a bottle of vodka and several beers before the attack.
