It will be a brave man who says no to him.

Burglary attempts at his homes[edit]
In 2001 two burglars broke into Ferguson's home in Rufford, between Liverpool and Preston, at night. Ferguson confronted them and was able to detain one of them who subsequently spent three days in hospital.[36] The second man managed to flee but was eventually caught. Both men were sentenced to fifteen months' imprisonment for their actions.

Two years later Ferguson caught another burglar in his home in Formby; the burglar attacked Ferguson, who retaliated; the burglar, who was hospitalised, alleged that Ferguson had assaulted him, but this was dismissed by police.[36][37]

Convictions for physical altercations[edit]
Ferguson has had four convictions for assault – two arising from taxi rank scuffles,[2] one an altercation with a fisherman in an Anstruther pub[2] and, the most infamous, his on-field headbutt on Raith Rovers defender John McStay in 1994 while playing for Rangers, which resulted in a rare conviction for an on-the-field incident.

The first incident led to a £100 fine for headbutting a policeman (he was fined a further £25 for a Breach of the Peace),[38] while the second resulted in a £200 fine for punching and kicking a supporter on crutches. He was sentenced to a year's probation for the third offence.[39] For the 1994 on-the-field headbutting of the opposition's footballer, he received and served a three-month jail term for assault.[40]
