Rio Ferdinand & Patrice Evra begged to be subbed during Manchester United Premier League game against Fulham - because they have to go to the loo.
Live TV viewers and a sell out 75,000 Old Trafford crowd were baffled by the pair’s embarrassing exits with no obvious sign of injury.
But coach Brian McClair has now come clean about the incident, “Both players had upset tummies. If they hadn’t run off pretty sharpish, the pitch may have had some unexpected fertilisation”…….haha…nice one Mr. McClair.
Manchester United 1-0 victory over Roma in the Champions League was a far cry from the trashing 7-1 they did last season against the Serie A side.
And while critics prefer to focus on the six 1-0 victories in the last eight games for the Reds and the fact that they are finding it hard to score, yesterday performance may just worried fans, that they are now finding it hard to defend.
United were not at their fluent best against a Roma side who were guilty of wasting several good chances in the second half and the Red Devils had been fortunate to get the three points.
With United failed to really stamped their authority on the game, Sir Alex Ferguson would need to provide more cover for his defense especially in the Champions League. Wigan Athletic may not be a problem, but back-to-back matches against pointless Dynamp Kiev, with a performance like yesterday, Manchester United may not be that lucky.
Manchester United started their Champions League opener with an impressive away win against Sporting Lisbon with Cristiano Ronaldo heading the only goal of the match.

One of the greatest moment in Manchester United history, when Ole Gunnar Solskjaer scored the winner in the 1999 Champions League final. And after 11 years at Old Trafford, the Norwegian has decided to step down after continuing problems with a knee injury. Thank you Ole .
As strange as it may seem, Manchester City are today top of the Premiership with a 100% record after 3 matches, while Manchester United are in the bottom five. Yes, you might be pinching yourself but pundits must be scrambling to their record books to remember when was the last time City was in this position.
Not that they were flying against United, in fact the Red Devils dominated in terms of possession with Scholes and Carrick controlling midfield area at ease as Owen Hargreaves was handed the job as a holding midfielder. Only the effectiveness of England teenage defender Micah Richards, who barely put a foot wrong, producing a string of fine tackles and interceptions that put striker Carlos Tevez at bay all the time.
And Sven’s new recruit, Geovanni was the match winner, lashing a strike that flew off from Nemanja Vidic to condemned United to their most miserable start of the season, and now faced a tricky encounter with Tottenham at home next week.
With Rooney and Ronaldo unavailable, Tevez was the main target man, and although linked superbly with Scholes and Giggs, was unable to get beyond Richards. Tevez however was guilty of several missed chances, and one at an open goal but somehow headed wide from an O’Shea corner. It was that type of afternoon for United.
