Neville, 46, didn’t reveal the circumstances around his run-in with Fergie.
But he insisted he only swore once at the managerial great, who was famed for handing out the hairdryer treatment.
He was asked on Twitter: “Worst thing Sir Alex Ferguson ever gave you the hairdryer for?”
And the ex-Red Devils defender responded: “I once (only once) told him to f*** off. Not a good call.”
But it was a largely harmonious relationship between Fergie and his long-term right-back.
Neville spent his entire legendary career at Old Trafford and was part of Ferguson’s dominant side.
The defender won eight Premier League titles, two Champions Leagues and three FA Cups.

He hung up his boots in 2011 after more than 600 appearances for the Red Devils.
Fergie, meanwhile, was one of the greatest managers in history as he won 13 league titles at Old Trafford.
The Scottish boss retired in 2013 after 27 glorious years, and a few famous hairdryer treatments.
