Ten Hag walks into a bank to cash a cheque, and as he approaches the cashier he says, "Good morning, Miss, can you cash this cheque for me, please ?" Cashier "It would be my pleasure. Show me some ID, please." Ten Hag "Really ? I did not bring my ID with me because I didn't think that there would be any need to. I am Erik ten Hag, Manager of Manchester United.” Cashier "Yes, I think that I know who you are, but with all the regulations and monitoring of the banks because of imposters and forgers and requirements of the legislation, etc., I must insist on seeing ID to be certain." Ten Hag Just ask anyone here at the bank who I am and they will tell you. Everybody knows who I am." Cashier "I am sorry, Mr Hag, but these are the bank rules and I must follow them." Ten Bob "Come on, please, I am urging you to cash this cheque." Cashier: "Look sir, here is an example of what we can do. One day, Tiger Woods came into the bank without ID, and to prove that he was Tiger Woods he pulled out his putter and made a beautiful shot across the bank into a cup. With that shot we knew him to be Tiger Woods and cashed his cheque." "Another time, Andre Agassi came in without ID, he pulled out his tennis racket and made a fabulous shot where the tennis ball landed in my cup. With that shot we cashed his cheque. So, sir, what can you do to prove that it is you and only you ?" Erik stands there thinking and thinking and finally says "Honestly, my mind is a total blank . . . . there is nothing that comes to my mind. I can't think of a single thing. I have absolutely no idea what to do . . . . I don't have a clue." Cashier "Will that be large or small notes , Mr Ten Hag ?”
Another owldy (they're nearly all owldies !) I just fell off a 27ft ladder . . . . luckily I was only on the first step.
