Ashley Young says a bird didn’t poop in his mouth despite a video of a bird pooping in his mouth

"I can 100 per cent, absolutely confirm it was not bird poo." It was rat's dung.

Ashley Young has moved quickly to quash serious allegations that a bird did his business in the United player's mouth - eight months ago. The English man looked to have excrement fall from the sky and land right in his trap as he barked out instructions during United's opening day loss to Swansea back in August. And, either he has been using the time to get his defence in order or he has been running around with his face like this, shell-shocked since the incident. He's finally come back around to his senses though and came out with a cast iron case for the defence. The video was doctored. That video that showed bird sh*t dropping into his mouth. That was doctored. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoZXEbo96Lg “I can, 100%, absolutely confirm it was not bird poo," the United winger said. "But I’d love to know who put that video out and how they did it. Or what my reaction might have been if it actually was.” So that's that cleared up then. We'd love to know who put the video out as well because apparently they have the power to actually walk into their television and place items in players' mouths and smack it over their lips. As if it was all real. We'd also love to know why Young was talking about this almost a full season since it happened. - "So, Ashley, are you looking forward to the game at the weekend?" - "Can I just say something first..."
