Clattenburg admits to referee bias towards United

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

Sums him up in 11 seconds, just watch his reaction to the Elbow that should have seen Rooney arrested if done on the street

Not sure if shrek getting away with that was because he was a rag or first name on the ingerlund team sheet at the time.

Bit of both I reckon.

As Engerland captain he got the Alan Shearer privileges.

I remember laughing when he finally got booked in the 87th minute of the last game of the season during that period.

That comment reminds me of Bryan Robson tackles, no one else was allowed to tackle like him. I remember an opponent turning around in anger after one seeing it was the England captain and then switching to a smile and a pat on the arm - even some of the opposition were biased towards him!

Twattenburg basically admitting that he's a fraud which we all knew and game is bent to fuckré, colour me surprised......

Scholes?

Scholes?

Scholars was never England captain though.
Robson, Shearer & Rooney all acted and were treated as if they were above the law.
Unfortunately, think "King Harry" Kane has also adopted this delusion of grandeur.
It also helps the England captain that the media allow this behaviour to continue.

Scholes?

Scholes tackling was atrocious and while there was some media and referee bias in their assessment of some of them, he was rightly booked and sent off for many of them, the fa cup semi in 2011 being an example.

Sent off for hardly any and not booked nearly enough. Pisscan and the press laughed it off though so no harm done.

That was the year when Fergie said there are some funny things happening at the FA that need looking at.

I think you are right, I need to change the phrase “many” to “not enough”
