Everton legend Duncan Ferguson has sent a terrifying and somewhat hilarious warning to a young Toffees fan who is slacking off at school.
Ferguson, who is now the club’s assistant manager, spent 10 years at Goodison Park across two spells. During his time on Merseyside as a player he established himself as a hero with the Everton faithful, if not a little bit on the intimidating side.
Don’t mess with Duncan Ferguson
Those issues resulted in eight PL red cards to take his career total to nine, and that’s excluding a three-month prison sentence for a headbutt during his days with Rangers.
So then, you can imagine why this young Everton fan is probably regretting letting things slip in his photography class.

“Hi young Tom, you alright son? It’s Duncan Ferguson here from Everton Football Club. I just wanted to wish you all the best pal. Your teacher, old Tom, has told me you’ve been f***ing slacking off a wee bit in your photography, is that right?” Ferguson joked, at least we think it was a joke.
“We cannae be having that mate. You better get your finger out alright and make sure that you get the f***ing results. If you get the results right and you stick in, I’ll come and see you.”
His warning went on to become a little more wholesome: “I’ll take you for a bit of lunch or I’ll come to your house or something, aye? We’ll sit down, have a wee chat. Is that alright mate? So you make sure you stick in, come on, don’t f*** the job up.
“Anyway, here’s Goodison for you, what do you think of that? Hopefully you’ll be back soon lad, eh? Alright mate, stick in son, god bless from Big Dunc. Take care.”
If that isn’t enough to get Tom sorted in photography, we’re not sure what would be. Good work, Big Dunc.
