Sir Alex Ferguson has admitted charges of improper conduct against him regarding comments made to referee Mark Clattenburg during Man Utd's defeat to Bolton last month. Fergie was unhappy with the aggressive stance of the Bolton players, and Patrice Evra and Kevin Davies had a bust up throughout.
Fergie said afterward: "It was a feisty game, I think they set an aggressive tone. You look for some protection from the referee, we didn't get it, and it became a shambles in the first half. There was foul after foul after foul.
"I told him (Clattenburg) exactly what I thought and he didn't like it. Some referees don't like the truth. I just told him how bad I thought he was in the first half, the game was becoming a shambles."
Ferguson has not requested a personal hearing and a regulatory commission will consider the charge at a date to be announced.
