Paul Scholes recalls "funniest" Man Utd team-mate making dressing room whiteboard gaffe

Paul Scholes named Nicky Butt as his funniest ever team-mate at Manchester United as he recalled an amusing tale of their time together in the reserves.

The two Englishmen came through United's fabled Class of '92 academy side to go on and win major honours for the senior team and represent their country. Both Scholes and Butt were key players in Sir Alex Ferguson's glory years, making almost 1000 appearances between them for their boyhood club.

Butt left United long before Scholes retired for the second time in 2013, but his former colleague still counts him as the biggest joker in the dressing room. ""He's funny isn't he? You just sort of look at him and he'll make you laugh," Scholes said to Gary Neville on The Overlap.
