Ferguson sees red over Rooney charade ?

In a row that is widely believed to have hastened Beckham’s exit from Old Trafford, a boot was allegedly kicked by Ferguson, hit Beckham in the face and left a small cut just above the eye.

An unnerving moment came during the charades round of the Manchester United Big Quiz filmed for MUTV as Rooney, Ryan Giggs and Jonny Evans went head-to-head with a coaching staff team captained by Ferguson.

Asked to act out the title of the film Bend It Like Beckham, Rooney initially struggled to give any clues. But when pushed by host Clare Balding, the England international, mimed the flicking of long hair out of his eyes, pointed at Ferguson and pretended to kick something before slapping his hand against his eye to mimic the moment Ferguson’s temper exploded at the former United midfielder.

The clip quickly turned into an internet sensation with viewers trying to work out whether Ferguson was merely pretending not to see the funny side, or whether Rooney really had angered him with his cheek.

The latter appeared to gain more credence when the clip was removed by the video sharing site YouTube on the instruction of Manchester United, although the club insisted this was due to copyright infringements.
