Sir Alex Ferguson is set for another wrap from The FA, as he keeps his protest against The BBC alive. The Reds boss has refused to talk to the national broadcaster since 2004, after they aired a documentary defaming him and his son, Jason...

The 2004 BBC Panorama documentary entitled 'Father and Son' portrayed the gaffer's son, Jason Ferguson - a football agent, as somebody who exploited his father's influence and position to his own advantage in the transfer market. The documentary caused an uproar, and since it's airing, Sir Alex has never spoken to The BBC on the account that it was 'nonsense'.

The boss declines interviews with The BBC, which is the long-standing cause for his absence on 'Match Of The Day' - where United assistant Mike Phelan gives his thoughts and reaction instead. In the past, Fergie said he would never talk to the national channel again. He has kept that promise.
