Manchester United were knocked out of the FA Cup because legendary psychic Uri Geller helped their opponents Brighton, he claims.
The spoon-bending guru used his cosmic powers against the Red Devils because his son is a huge Seagulls fan.
The Old Trafford outfit were beaten by the south coast team in the third round of the contest on Sunday (11 Jan).

And it was closely watched by Uri, who was focused on every kick from his home in Israel.
“My son has moved to Brighton and is a huge fan – he was at Old Trafford for the match,” the former reality TV contestant told What’s The Jam.
“And every time Brighton play I send my energies – the power of the mind is immense.
“The motivational energies can reach the players, it can reach the fans.
“Albert Einstein proved that energy cannot be destroyed – all matter in the universe comes from energy.

“Humans come from energy, football players are energy, the stadium and fans are, too.
“So when I send out my thought power and it reaches them, no doubt they are influenced.”
Brighton triumphed 2-1 in the fixture and Uri says he’ll be concentrating on their next match as well.

He recently hit headlines after pledging to solve the Greenland crisis by suggesting his own mystical island could play a key role.
The mind reader, 79, offered the tiny, rocky outcrop off Scotland’s east coast to Donald Trump, also 79, for use as a military base.
The sabre-rattling US president wants to annex Greenland even though it belongs to Denmark.
And he is said to be considering a military invasion of the world’s largest island for security reasons if other options fail.
But instead Uri said his football pitch-sized rock, near North Berwick in Scotland and home to hundreds of puffins, makes more sense as a military base.
