Not many players were spared the infamous Sir Alex Ferguson hairdryer treatment during his trophy-laden spell as Manchester United manager.
Gary Pallister was certainly no exception to that rule, either.
The former United defender played his part in the club's rise in the nineties, winning four titles during those early Premier League seasons as Ferguson and co went on to dominate English football and win two Champions League trophies at their peak of their powers.
Sir Alex's methods are unquestioned, his achievements are unsurpassed.
However, there was the odd moment when a United player might be left scratching his head as to exactly why the legendary Scot was giving them both barrels, as former Scotland international Brian McClair explains.
During a guest appearance on the Off The Ball podcast, he said: "I had been closer to them [younger players] than some of my colleagues, because at that time I had started to be in and out of the team and spent a bit more time playing and training with the reserves.
"For example, I knew that Gary Neville had a long throw.
"I'm not saying that's the only thing Gary [Neville] could do, but I do remember Gary Pallister getting a hairdryer for not knowing that Gary Neville had a long throw. That's one of the things that sticks in your head.
"I was like; 'Of course, Gary, why would you not know that?' But he had never really played with him and, in training, with the way that was structured, it would have very rarely been 11 a-side, in-game and doing a practice match.
"It was all small-sided games, still, so you wouldn't have throw ins."
McClair, who won four Premier League titles himself and played 287 games for United, added: "There were probably loads of irrational things to get the hairdryer about! The reason for it is not necessarily about that particular incident.
"It's about saying: 'I only care about this game and I want to win this game and you can do a lot better than you're doing'. He couldn't have known. I could have! That was the moment of amusement for me. He would have been like; 'I can't believe I'm getting my a*** kicked for not knowing Gary Neville has got a long throw.
"I was like; 'Come on Gary, everyone knew that'."
