He was winding me up, saying: ‘What are you doing playing in this team?’ Then he bit me!“I told the manager and he shouted: ‘Bite him back, then!’” Ferguson had the last laugh in that encounter as he scored as the Hampden side ran out 2-1 winners.The legendary Scot, meanwhile, retains a great fondness for the venue he made his debut at. “Hampden’s a great stadium. There were 134,000 at the Real Madrid [v Eintracht Frankfurt] European Cup final, and the record crowd was 148,000 at the [1937] Scottish Cup final. It’s not the same size and more, but the atmosphere has been retained – it’s still got that aura about it. It’s a great venue and European Championship will be fantastic here.”Glasgow will play host to three group stage matches and a last 16 fixture.</blockquote>
