Controversial decision No 1,345,567#

Woodsyla · May 12, 2008

It will sound like sour grapes or that I'm bitter but I do genuinely believe the Mancs have been the best side this season and deserve to win the title. BUT

How come they never ever get controversial decisions against them and always get them for them.

If Scholes was playing for any other club he would have been off. No attempt to play the ball, stopped the man, yet he stays on the pitch. It's so downright blatent that it's unfair. If Man Utd had been down to 10 men (as they should have been) they may well still have got the win they needed (draw as it turned out) but the rest of the league wouldn't be looking on thinking I wonder if we will ever get a level playing field.

When Steve Bruce is calling the Ref a cheat in a game against teh Mancs you know something is up.

P.S. Fair play to Fathead and Wigan, made a good fist of it and they were cheated by a dodgy official.

From the BBC

Wigan manager Steve Bruce:

"Paul Scholes will go down as one of United's greats. Everything about him is top, top drawer.

"But he knows he got away with it today. Had it been any other day it was another yellow card and he should have been off. You should ask the referee about his integrity, not about my team.

"Thankfully there was nothing riding on it for us but I have to say three decisions in the first half were absolutely unbelievable. To say the penalty we conceded was harsh is an understatement."
