ERIK TEN HAG wanted to send Marcus Rashford to non-league Macclesfield – he just did not have enough strikers.
The forward found himself in hot water on two occasions last season and was disciplined by Manchester United.
First Rashford was sanctioned after arriving late for a team meeting after apparently oversleeping.
He was left on the bench for the next match against Wolves – that was strike one.
His next slip-up was more serious as Rashford skipped training to travel to Belfast.
Man Utd subsequently fined him two weeks wages after Rashford claimed illness forced him to miss training.
That second act of defiance apparently did not sit well with Ten Hag, who wanted to take a hardline approach to dealing with the England star.
According to Manchester Evening News, Ten Hag made his feelings clear to a confidant during a team meeting.
The confidant reportedly joked to Ten Hag that if Rashford stepped out of line in the days of Sir Alex Ferguson, he would have been sent to seventh-tier Macclesfield.
Ten Hag assured the confidant that if he had enough forwards he would have sent Rashford to Macclesfield himself.
Rashford, 27, has since been shipped out on loan to Aston Villa as Ten Hag’s successor Ruben Amorim was also unhappy with his attitude.
Amorim slammed Rashford’s training levels, while the player himself admitted he was ready for a new challenge.
TEACHERS are seeing an alarming rise in boys watching misogynistic influencers such as Andrew Tate, according to a study.
Two thirds told researchers they were extremely concerned by the trend towards thinking it was acceptable to treat females an inferiors.
One reported a boy saying women belonged in the kitchen, and others who touched girls inappropriately but did not believe it was wrong to do so.
Many had seen young girls upset by the behaviour — and even worried about going to school because of how they would be treated there.
Social media bigmouths, such as Tate, promote the “manosphere” — urging males to hit back against feminism.
Their misogynistic influence was revealed by a York University poll of 200 teachers.
Sixty per cent of primary school teachers and 76 per cent in secondaries are “extremely concerned” about it.
Most say more training on the dangers is needed.
Researcher Prof Harriet Over said: “Teachers referenced cases in which male pupils praised misogynistic influencers, made misogynistic comments and engaged in discriminatory behaviour to female peers and staff.”
A TINY shelter has cost taxpayers more than €360,000 to refurbish — with TDs fuming: It’s insane.
The 8ft-tall hut was used by firemen and bus drivers for protection against the weather.
It stood on St Patrick’s Street, in Cork city, from 1892 until 2003 before being removed and put in storage.
Last year, the structure — known as the Fireman’s Hut — was re-erected outside Cork City Fire Brigade’s HQ on Anglesea Street.
But politicians are raging at learning the bill for doing up the shelter — which cost a mere £60 pounds to build — now stands at €361,446.
Cork North-Central TD Ken O’Flynn said it was ridiculous to spend over €300,000 restoring something the size of a garden shed.
He said: “How many houses could be brought back into the housing stock by doing renovations to bring them up to date?
“This is exactly the same rubbish we saw in Leinster House with the bicycle shed that cost €336,000.
“It’s absolutely appalling and we haven’t yet gotten a full breakdown of how the costs were incurred.”
Last year it emerged an eye-watering €336,000 was spent on a bike shed at Leinster House.
Some €1.4million was also spent on a security hut at Government Buildings.
And Cork City Council member Peter Horgan described the latest payout as “absolutely mad — insane”.
He said: “We talk about the cost of bicycle sheds, and security huts and now we have something like this that isn’t even useable is a disgrace. It’s a nice historical piece and that’s it.”
And Sinn Fein TD Thomas Gould, who received the most recent bill, described the saga as “scandalous”.
He said the council “has questions to answer”, adding: “I cannot wrap my head around how almost €5,000 was spent on scaffolding for a hut that’s not even eight feet tall.
“Alongside this, almost €20,000 was spent on conservation consultants? That is mind-blowing.”
He said the costs seem to keep growing after last year being told the bill would be in the region of €300,000 — with Deputy Gould fearing the spend on the hut will continue to rocket up.
In a statement, Cork City Council said: “The project was subject to a competitive tendering process and therefore prices are reflective of the market prices for such skills and experience.”
