Got to be the most incompetant ref in footballing history..the guy is a fucking loser..
what with this and the dodgy nani goal against Spuds...the guy is so far up the scums arse that no one will top them until coonts like this are got rid of.
so what hes saying is that the elbow didnt even warrant a yellow ?? Cowardly weasel sums him up for me..
He´ll cause a fookin riot if he does. If the the FA had any sense they´d strip him of the game Wed - made a rod for his own back that coont and will get what´s coming to himDave Ewing's Back 'eader said:Bluemer said:Lol
Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney will face no action from the Football Association after he appeared to elbow Wigan's James McCarthy.
The incident occurred during Saturday's Premier League match at the DW Stadium in which Rooney scored one of the goals in his team's 4-0 victory.
TV replays showed Rooney catch McCarthy on the back of his head with his elbow.
Ref Mark Clattenburg awarded a free-kick but Wigan manager Roberto Martinez insisted Rooney deserved a red card.
Clattenburg told the FA on Monday that he feels he took the appropriate action, which means the governing body cannot launch disciplinary proceedings against the 25-year-old England forward.
Crappenberg told the FArce the he continued in his mission to be the most corrupt arbiter the Solar System has ever seen. We will no doubt cop for Crappenberg's uselessness on Wednesday. I fancy that Mario will be sent for an early bath before HT and that Villa are awarded at least one pen in the first half hour!

For all those doubters and suggestions about whether or not Clattenberg saw it, it's simple, if he says he saw it and says he took what he deemed appropriate action, then will be stripped of his accreditation and miss several future Premier League fixtures, as well as looking like a fool. So lets not assume that there is any outcome but a ban, it's a fucking certainty, mark my words, and one or two loonies on here better get their bog roll out and start munching!

Just for the record, I am genuinely flabergasted, if this outcome and situation can be justified as requiring no FA intervention, then indeed our game is factually finished.
What I can tell you is, if the wigan player made a complaint of assault, due to the governing body expressing their feeling (in a clear case of corruption <a class="postlink-local" href="http://forums.bluemoon-mcfc.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=203754" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">viewtopic.php?f=1&t=203754</a>), that it was unworthy of action or intervention, Rooney would be arrested and without any doubt whatsoever, be either charged and found guilty at court, or cautioned under criminal law.
I appreciate this won't happen, but if either the player or Club had the balls to do the right thing and take it further, the outcome would force the FA into accepting their clear folly and innability to correctly govern the game within clear rules, and to do their job properly in all similar future assaults (which this clearly was) in just the same way as we have seen by Thatcher, Gerrard, Barton and many others, and it could just be the action required to set our great game back towards the path it has clearly strayed well away from.

I think this is exactly what has happened. I expect Clattenburg will now be referring in the lower leagues for a couple of games.

That makes me feel even more sick if true.
But it is my understanding that the Italians fucked this nonsense off a long time ago and regularly thumb their nose at FIFA by using video evidence against players when the referee gets it wrong. And we all know that our very own FA quite rightly bent the rules in Ben Thatcher's case.However, the disciplinary process is complex in the sense that the FA are not allowed by FIFA to take further action on incidents already dealt with by the referee.
