Man Utd boss Ferguson: I once stood up Frank Sinatra!

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson admits he has one regret during his time at Old Trafford - scrapping a dinner with Frank Sinatra after a defeat!

Ferguson was asked which piece of music summed up his 22 years as manager of the team and said: "Well, you can't beat Sinatra, can you? Ole' Blue Eyes.'

"I was actually supposed to have dinner one night with him and we lost to Charlton, and I cancelled him at home.

"I wasn't in the mood to meet anybody that night, so it was back in the bus."
