Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer aimed an X-rated dig at his daughter's boyfriend before leaving the latest episode of The Rest Is Football early.
The Premier League's record goal scorer, Shearer, is a key part of The Rest Is Football podcast along with the likes of Gary Lineker and Micah Richards.
During the latest episode, Shearer had to leave early as he was off to join his family to celebrate his son, Will, finishing the London Marathon on Sunday.
Will was running the marathon in support of the Alan Shearer Foundation, which was set up to help families access life-enhancing therapies and activities at the Alan Shearer Centre in Newcastle completely free of charge.

Lineker said: "Happy travels, Alan," to which Shearer replied: "Cheers boys, thank you. Have a good night, I'm off to have a few more."
However, before leaving the show, Shearer had time to reveal the nightmare journey his daughter's boyfriend, former Newcastle Falcons scrum-half Micky Young, experienced travelling from Newcastle to London.
Shearer explained: "He got to the train station and got there five minutes early. He got on the train and then after 15 minutes on the train, he heard the announcement: 'Welcome to everyone who's got on this train to Edinburgh'.
"It was non-stop, all the way to Edinburgh! He's had to go from Newcastle to Edinburgh and that's the last train. He looked at different modes of transport, flights, cars."

He continued: "He got on the f****** megabus. The 10 o'clock megabus, which cost him 30 quid, from Edinbrugh to London. He got in at 6:45 this morning.

"I said to him, 'And you are meant to be looking after my f****** daughter in the future!"
Shearer's story left co-hosts Lineker and Richards in fits of laughter.
Speaking about the London Marathon, Shearer added: "I have to say, it's unbelievable.
"The atmosphere and the coming together of everyone, honestly, everyone is just so happy."
