For Manchester United it's not right. There is something wrong when Manchester United get seven bookings" - Ferguson returns to a familiar theme after Clattenburg referees ManYoo's draw at Tottenham in January. > > * "This game was decided when Ronaldo's penalty was refused. That gave them great confidence to hang on knowing the referee was on their side" - Ferguson earns himself a disrepute charge after questioning the integrity of referee Martin Atkinson following United's FA Cup exit to Portsmouth. The rant continues for five minutes. It is then taken up by Carlos Queiroz... > > * "The referee is a disgrace and he didn't do his job. We did our job, Portsmouth did their job, but the referee didn't do his. Sadly, we still have referees who don't understand what is the right thing in the game and who they should protect. It is a pity and I feel sorry the game has moved to a situation where referees deserve red cards. This referee deserves somebody to come to the side of the pitch after five minutes, give him a red card and pull him out of the game. That is my opinion of this robber" - Queiroz, his master's voice, takes his lead from Ferguson and launches an even more hysterical rant against Atkinson. > > An inevitable FA charge eventually reaches Old Trafford, although Ferguson remains unrepentant, asking a reporter "Did you see the game" in response to be asked if he would plead guilty. > > * "It is a hard to say what is going on with this game. I have to talk about some of the decisions in the last few weeks that have damaged this football club. We are not in the FA Cup final because of a bad decision when we should have had a penalty against Portsmouth . Against Barcelona in the Champions League on Wednesday, there should have been three penalties but only one was given. Something is wrong with football" - An extract of Queiroz's angry rant after Chelsea beat United courtesy of a late penalty - the first United have conceded this season - by Michael Ballack. > > * "It was absolutely diabolical. It is a major decision Granted, it hit his hand. But he has not lifted his hand above his shoulders, above his head, anything like that. It is going straight to Rio Ferdinand. The referee should have seen that rather than the linesman. If we're not going to get those decisions then we are under pressure" - Having refused to speak to Sky Sports in the immediate aftermath of the defeat, Ferguson eventually emerges on MUTV to blame officialdom for the loss at Stamford Bridge. > > > > ____________________________________________________________________________________ > Be a better friend, newshound, and > know-it-all with Yahoo!
