Sir Alex Ferguson and Eddie Jones share pearls of wisdom as veteran coaches watch Manchester United face rivals Chelsea at Old Trafford

Two managerial legends were spotted in the Old Trafford stands on Sunday, with England head coach Eddie Jones taking up his seat alongside Sir Alex Ferguson.

Jones suffered disappointment on Saturday when Scotland held on to register their first win over England in a decade and regain the Calcutta Cup with a breathtaking 25-13 win at Murrayfield.

But less than 24 hours later, he travelled to Manchester to watch United's crunch Premier League encounter with arch rivals Chelsea.
