5. Duncan Ferguson Perhaps the most uncompromising (and frightening) centre forward that English football has seen, ‘Big Dunc’ was convicted of assault four times, the most famous being his headbutt aimed at Raith Rovers’ John McStay in 1994, for which he received a three month prison sentence.
He also butted a policeman, beat up a supporter on crutches and an assault on a fisherman at a hotel. He has since reinvented himself as a pioneering coach and he is working closely with the Everton first-team under Roberto Martinez.
At least he rehabilitated himself.
Interestingly this happened before the Suarez incident so this is not a copy-cat act of retaliation. Still bad.
