Battle of the buffet

In his book, Ashley Cole reveals his own version of events over the so-called 'battle of the buffet' - when slices of pizza were thrown at Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson following Arsenal's 2-0 defeat at Old Trafford in 2004.
He hinted that midfielder Cesc Fabregas was at the centre of the infamous row by confirming that the pizza was not thrown by an English or French player.
"This slice of pizza came flying over my head and hit Fergie straight in the mush," he revealed.
"The slap echoed down the tunnel and everything stopped - the fighting, the yelling, everything. All eyes turned and all mouths gawped to see this pizza slip off that famous puce face and roll down his nice black suit.
"All I can say is that the culprit wasn't English or French, so that should narrow it down."
At the time of the incident though, it was Cole himself who was credited with the pizza-flinging.
