Compromise was eventually established between the disciplinarian manager and his squad when it was announced the players would be allowed to wear tracksuit bottoms to warm up in but not during sessions themselves. There was an ironic twist around the same time when Hagan pressed the wrong pedal while trying to depart the training ground and hurtled 40ft down a steep bank into the adjacent canal. Several of his players saved him from an icy death but, on hearing puffing and panting during the rescue mission, the Sheffield United legend reportedly told one of them: YouOre not fit.....extra training this afternoon!"
