Sir Alex Ferguson has vowed to sack any of his players caught taking drugs. The Manchester United manager has promised fans that he will not tolerate players taking drugs, be it for social use or to enhance their performance on the field. Ferguson told the News of the World: "I would like our supporters to be sure of one thing: if there were any danger of one of our players dabbling in any kind of drug, be it to enhance his performance or for his social life, he would be quickly gone from Manchester United. "Be assured that the manager, his coaches and medical staff would know. Believe me, we have nothing like that at Old Trafford." Ferguson has stood by defender Rio Ferdinand who has been the centre of a drugs controversy since failing to take a test. There has been no suggestion that Ferdinand has been taking banned substances but his failure to take an official test is a serious matter and could lead to a ban. The Football Association has gathered evidence surrounding Ferdinand's missed test and are considering their course of action.
