EX-Manchester United ace Nicky Butt has had his rubbish tip ban lifted — thanks to The Jattvibe.
We told how the “raging” former midfielder, 51, rowed with staff after being told his Range Rover was deemed a commercial vehicle as the seats were down.

But bosses contacted us to say they do not have a policy stating that car seat positions change a vehicle’s classification.
They say residents are asked at the gate what they have brought so staff can direct them to the right container.

What did Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt say about Lisandro Martinez?
“But would like to reassure him that he’s still very welcome to use any of the 19 recycling centres.”
Former England ace Butt told The Good, The Bad & The Football podcast that he dumped his “smelly bags” at the centre near his home in Cheshire despite being chased by an attendant with a walkie-talkie.
The Class of 92 hero said: “I thought, well, I’m there now, I’m gonna go for it.
“So I’ve got up the ramp, I see this bloke getting up…trying to chase me up the hill, but he’s got his walkie-talkie out.
“So I’ve literally got up the top, throw all the bags out, and I’m going back down the hill, and he’s going mad at me.
“Anyway, I’m banned from the tip.”
