Fergie angry for sending off

Fergie angry for sending off

24 November 2007 - 23:38

Sir Alex Ferguson has hit out at Mark Clattenburg for his refereeing performance in the match between Bolton and Man Utd. Man Utd lost 1-0, but Ferguson was sent into the stands for complaining repeatedly about Bolton's aggressive stance.

  • Fabrizio Romano updates on Nicolas Jackson's future at Chelsea
  • Arsenal suffer big injury blow ahead of Fulham game
  • Ferguson said: "I told the referee what I thought - some referees don't like that. They don't like the truth," said Ferguson.



    "But I just told him how bad he was in the first-half.



    "I know Bolton are battling for their lives at the bottom but they were a bit aggressive and we were looking for some protection from the referee.



    "The first half was just a shambles. It was foul after foul after foul. I felt they were over-physical and there were two or three really dodgy tackles. You hope the referee is strong enough to handle it. But he wasn't."
