Yet again a United game turns on a crucial decision, whether it's letting Neville off red cards, not giving stonewall penalties or allowing Nani to kick a stationary ball into the net - I'm losing count of the amount of times this has happened this season.
I'm not naive enough to think United are where they are purely due to referees, they are a very good side, but it has happened too often for too long.
In the second half Walton's performance totally shifted from impartial to biased, from the booking of Adam to individual freekicks to the blatant pen decision. Webb did the same vs Liverpool. Dowd did it last March. Clattenburg vs Spurs and the Nani fiasco. Marriner let Neville off a blatant red. They haven't lost with Walton in charge.
Google 'Walton paid off' - a fulham fan has documented several dodgy United decisions which turned games around.
It runs deeper than simply spur of the moment decisions IMO.
YouTube the Jonny Evans kick on Drogba and tell me how the FA, after watching that, decided no action was necessary. Rafael was let off last week after a conference call with Ferguson. Countless other examples of Rooney elbows and Ronaldo kicks have gone unpunished by both referees and the FA. The only 'harsh' thing the FA have done to United was the Ferdinand ban - everything else stinks of corruption.
Not that anyone will ever do anything about it.
Am I barking up the wrong tree here or is there a potential Serie A-style corruption going on?
Maybe I'm just bitter, but something just doesn't feel right.

There have been a few articles on here recently, in which I and others have given strong views at the despicable behaviour of that cnutish little upstart Rafael, and his disgusting conduct, and I've just found something very interesting and that could lead to the FA, once and for all proving whether or not it has a secret agenda and shows undoubted favouritism towards the scummy red bastards we all love so much, on here.

Refusing to leave Old Trafford pitch is set to cost Mascherano a three-match ban
Javier Mascherano is facing a three-match ban for his sending off at Manchester United, with the FA set to charge him with improper misconduct.
The Argentinian international is likely to have his mandatory one-game suspension for getting two yellow cards extended because of his refusal to leave the field after referee Steve Bennett's decision.
Bennett is expected to hand in his official match report today and the FA are keen to make an example of Mascherano, who still believes he did nothing wrong.
He said: 'I do not know why I was sent off. I asked the referee what was happening. I did not swear, I was not aggressive and I did not confront him.
All I did was ask him what was happening, nothing else. When he showed the second yellow card and sent me off I could not believe it'.?
**********************************************************
Now as in Rafaels case, Mascherano did not shout 'you're a fucking wanker' or any of the other vile abuse that came from this arogant little pricks foreign tongue, directly at the referee, however none the less, he then subsequently found himself on the recieving end of a further two game ban, implimented by the FA.
I think it could well be an interesting comparison, as both were for almost exacly the same situation, both sent off for 2 yellows, and both being reluctant to say the least, to leave the field of play without dissent.
Lets see how this unfolds, hope the FA realise that dual standards cannot be seen to apply and that their integrity will be placed in further doubt if they do not take the appropriate action.
Jeez, I think it's time you found yourself a girlfriend. You're one step away from going through someones bins.
