THERE'S only one boss in Sir Alex Ferguson's house - and it's not him.

Fergie has terrorised some of football's biggest stars but he has admitted wife Cathy is the gaffer when he gets home.

And the Glasgow girl makes sure the house stays a footballfree zone. She won't even let her man keep his glittering array of trophies there.

Sir Alex, 69, said: "You'll not find a thing about my career in the house at all. Cathy's fed up with the whole thing.

"She's unbelievable. I can't even take a football book home or she'll say, 'What are you doing with that?'"

Fergie told the magazine of the League Managers Association that Cathy made him miss two pre-season friendlies in 2007 - to help her move house.

And when he was knighted in 1999, she told Labour spin doctor Alastair Campbell: "Do you not think he's had enough rewards?"

Cathy's clearly not too impressed by Fergie's haul of FORTY-SIX trophies at Manchester United, Aberdeen and St Mirren.

But if it wasn't for her, the great man might already be retired. It was Cathy who told her husband to carry on working when he came close to giving up the game in 2002.

"It's the only time I've ever been bullied," Fergie said.
