England rugby head coach Eddie Jones says he will not travel on public transport again after being physically and verbally abused while making his way back to London by train following Scotland's Calcutta Cup victory in Edinburgh.

Jones is believed to have feared for his safety as he traveled alone on Sunday morning, firstly to Manchester.

He was a guest at Old Trafford of Sir Alex Ferguson when Manchester United beat Chelsea.

After England's 25‑13 defeat by Scotland, Jones initially posed for selfies on the 9.15am train to Manchester from Edinburgh Waverley before the atmosphere turned sour on the three‑hour 11‑minute journey.

England will face France at 5.45am on the 11th of this month in the Six Nations match.
