Was he trying to trademark "Sir Alex Rednose" or his birth name? :D

My favorite quote:

Sir Alex Ferguson has failed in an attempt to make his name a trademark because he is "devoid of any distinctive character".

Rumor was he was trying to trademark "The Human Hairdryer" for his post-football career in the WWE. Guess he was trying to beat Vince McMahon to it!
