Manchester United have failed in their bid to stop certain charities collecting near their stadium.

They wanted Trafford Council to change its rules to allow only their three nominated charities to collect within half a mile of Old Trafford.

Might be Fergies dodgy son Jason who he fell out with the BBC over when they exposed dubious business dealings with United. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/2379603/United-cut-Ferguson-agency-link.html. I believe he was last heard of running a Chilli Dog stand at Old Trafford.

On a linked issue what's the odds on United being fined when Ferguson carries out his promised threat of refusing to be interviewed by the BBC later today ?
