Sir Alex Ferguson could face
sanctions from the Premier
League next season if he continues to boycott the
BBC.
The Manchester United boss
has refused to speak to the BBC following the screening of a
Panorama programme about links between the club and his son Jason,
who was then working as a football agent.
The new Premier League rule
Q17 says: "With effect from season 2010/11, all managers are
required to attend in person and participate in post-match
interviews held by or for the benefit of a UK broadcaster or radio
broadcaster and failure to do so without just cause shall be a
breach of these rules."
United currently send no-one to press conferences after league
games.
