Duncan Ferguson says the grub at trendy Forest Green Rovers is miles above what he experienced during his stretch in Barlinnie.
The former Scotland forward has landed his first manager's gig at the struggling English League One club after a lengthy coaching stint at Everton. He played for Dundee United and Rangers north of the border, spending six weeks in prison after being found guilty of assault following a headbutt on Raith Rovers defender John McStay while playing at Ibrox in 1994.
One of the game's colourful characters, he joins a club which is thought to be the world's first carbon-neutral outfit, where players eat vegan food and solar panels power the stadium. And when unveiled alongside some vegan burgers, it caught the imagination of many, and Ferguson said to The Athletic of the food offerings in reference to being arrested at Rangers: "The food here is really good. Remember, I have been in Barlinnie.
