Party's over boys, even if you win the title, Fergie tells disgraced United players

Manchester United have been banned from partying - even if they win a 10th Premier League title.

Manager Alex Ferguson has not just cancelled any more Christmas bashes but ALL parties for the players.

Ferguson: Laid down the law

The boss is still fuming following lurid tales from last week's Christmas do. He called his squad together and told them there would be no more parties full stop, report the Sun.

Angry Fergie even considered dishing out more than £1million in fines by docking a week's wages from all those involved.

A title victory in May will be greeted with the normal on-pitch celebrations with champagne among family and friends.

But there will be no end-of-season knees-up in Manchester, which the players normally enjoy at their favourite city-centre haunts after a title triumph.

The boss will also be keeping an extra close eye on all socialising done by the players.

If any of them step out of line again, he will hit them hard.

The club's name has been dragged through the mud since the events of Monday December 17.

Full-back Jonny Evans faces an allegation of rape after the players' 15-hour booze binge ended in the City's Great John Street Hotel.

Ferguson refused to discuss the fallout from the party when quizzed last Friday. When asked if he had any comment to make on the incident, he replied: "No - nothing. Why would I say anything.

"Alex Ferguson has dealt with situations like this for 21 years and I know exactly what to do. I don't need to be guided by anyone."
