Sir Alex Ferguson has reacted angrily after Rio Ferdinand refused to
wear a Kick It Out anti-racism T-shirt at Old Trafford on Saturday.
The Manchester United manager had claimed on Friday that all of his players would wear the shirts in accordance with the country-wide FA initiative - and even criticised Reading striker Jason Roberts for saying he would refuse to .
However, prior to the Red Devils' 4-2 win over Stoke, Ferdinand wore a red United tracksuit top rather than his the black 'one game, one community' T-shirts sported by his team-mates.
Ferdinand eventually took his training top off to reveal he was wearing a United training shirt, with the DHL sponsors logo.
Speaking to MUTV, Ferguson said: "I am disappointed. I said yesterday that the players would be wearing it in support of the PFA and that every player should adhere to it.
"And he goes and lets us down. We will deal with it, don't worry."
