...is happening to our use of the English language? Spotted this today:

Quote. "Last year, he admitted assaulting his wife during a row on the driveway of his parents' home and was fined £1,500.

Macclesfield Magistrates' Court heard Ferguson raised his leg and struck Nadine's stomach." End quote.

FFS, why not simply "He kicked her in the stomach"?

Alex Ferguson's relatives 'seriously ill' after crash

Sir Alex Ferguson's daughter-in-law and grandson were described as "seriously ill" today after they were involved in a road crash.
Nadine Ferguson, 30, who is separated from Sir Alex's son Darren, was airlifted to hospital in Manchester following the collision near her home in Cheshire yesterday morning.


The couple's 10-year-old son and six-year-old daughter, named in reports as Charlie and Grace Ferguson, were taken by road ambulance to Leighton Hospital in Crewe.


The boy was later transferred to Alder Hey Children's Hospital in Liverpool.


Police have not said what injuries the family suffered.


A spokeswoman for Cheshire Police said: "The young boy was taken to Alder Hey where he is in a very serious but stable condition.


"The six-year-old girl was treated for minor injuries at Leighton Hospital.


"Their mother was taken to Wythenshawe Hospital where her condition is serious."


Mrs Ferguson's black Vauxhall Corsa was in collision with a Ford Fiesta on Trap Street, Lower Withington, Macclesfield, at around 8.25am yesterday.


She was separated from Peterborough United boss Darren, 37, in 2006 after four years of marriage.


Last year he admitted assaulting his wife during a row on the driveway of his parents' home and was fined £1,500.


Macclesfield Magistrates' Court heard Ferguson raised his leg and struck Nadine's stomach.


Manchester United boss Sir Alex last night gave away no sign of his family's worries as he watched his side cruise into the Champions League Final.


United beat Arsenal 3-1 in the semi-final second leg at the Emirates stadium.


It was reported the Fiesta driver, believed to be a 17-year-old boy, was taken to hospital with leg injuries and was in a stable condition.


A local resident, Lynda Syers, 60, told The Sun: "The car was surrounded by paramedics and firemen. I could see the driver in the passenger seat sobbing her eyes out.


"She was cradling her young daughter and trying to comfort her, but they were both completely distraught.


"They were watching a paramedic apply a bandage to the boy's head in an ambulance. He was dazed. I heard his mum saying over and over, 'My poor babies'. She was clearly in shock."

Ferguson crash family 'serious'

Charlie has undergone surgery at Alder Hey Hospital, where his condition is "very serious, but stable".

Mrs Ferguson, who is separated from Sir Alex's son Darren, is "serious, but comfortable" in Wythenshawe Hospital.

Grace suffered minor injuries and is expected to be released from Leighton Hospital in Crewe.

Cheshire Police would not say what injuries were suffered by the family.

A police spokeswoman said: "A 30-year-old woman was airlifted to Wythenshawe Hospital where she remains in a stable condition after suffering serious injuries.

"The two children were taken by road ambulance to Leighton Hospital. The girl had suffered minor injuries and was detained for observation.

"The boy suffered more serious injuries, his condition this morning is stable."

Mrs Ferguson's black Vauxhall Corsa was in collision with a Ford Fiesta in Trap Street, Lower Withington, on Tuesday morning.

The Fiesta driver, a 17-year-old man, was taken to hospital with leg injuries.

Mrs Ferguson was separated from Peterborough United boss Darren, 37, in 2007 after four years of marriage. Charlie is her son from a previous relationship.

On Tuesday evening, Sir Alex watched Manchester United beat Arsenal 3-1 in the semi-final second leg of the Champions League.
