We live near Manchester United’s training ground and their stars drive recklessly – one nearly hit my fiancee
MANCHESTER United stars have been blasted for driving recklessly near their training base.
Residents spoke of their anger after we revealed Marcus Rashford’s £700,000 Rolls-Royce was wrecked in a collision with a car driven by a gran, 74.
Engineer Peter Laycock said his fiancée Amy, 41, has raised concerns about players speeding near the Carrington complex.
Peter, 36, said: “We see them on this road every day.
“Amy contacted the club because she wasn’t happy with how some of the younger players were driving. One nearly hit her.
“She made a call and was told it would be passed on.”

Mr Laycock said he was recently in his car at lights next to Rashford and had to move out of the way when the ace raced off to avoid autograph-hunters.
United were contacted for comment about players’ driving.
Yesterday the gran involved in Saturday night’s crash refused to comment from her home in Cheshire.
A relative confirmed she was “OK”.
