Hope someone's mentioned how Aguero got a ban last year for far less, when the blind man didn't include the Winston Reid 'elbow' in his report.
I have seen the influence Alex Ferguson has on every facet of the English game. When his Darren son got fired as manager of Preston North End, I watched with bemusement as Ferguson immediately recalled his loan players from Deepdale. I then watched in horror as another club in the premier league, managed by Ferguson’s father’s friend Tony Pulis, also recalled their loan players from PNE.

At minimum he used fear to pressure referees and the FA, I think there's more to it than that thoughI have seen the influence Alex Ferguson has on every facet of the English game.

Not difficult to see why when you have the chief exec of the premier league coming out with comments like this
