Would you break the glass? 'Emergency' Sir Alex Ferguson installed outside Old Trafford

DAVID MOYES hardly needs reminding of the man he replaced as Manchester United manger - but one cheeky bookmaker has done it anyway.

Paddy Power have installed an "emergency" Fergie outside Old Trafford with a waxwork of the great manager inside.

The green box has the words "in case of emergency break glass" written on its front while its famous occupant stands inside staring at his watch.

While many took to Twitter to marvel at the hilarious prank it is unlikely Moyes will be laughing along with them.
The defending champions slumped to a 3-1 defeat at Chelsea on Sunday to leave their Premier League title defence in tatters.

And worryingly for Moyes, the bookmaker is pricing Sir Alex at 13/2 to take charge of a United first-team game this season.

A PP spokesman said: "Jose [Mourinho] hammered the final nail into the coffin that is Man Utd’s season on Sunday night and their seventh loss of the season has brought Sir Alex back to Old Trafford."
Would you be breaking the glass to release the emergency Fergie?
