Comes complete with really stupid, ass licking comments from the man from the LMA.
The charge comes in the same week that Wayne Rooney escaped punishment for elbowing James McCarthy during United's 4-0 win at Wigan Athletic, but the two incidents are being treated separately. Likewise, Ferguson's reputation as a serial offender when it comes to criticising match officials has not come into the equation.
Richard Bevan, the chief executive of the League Managers' Association, defended Ferguson, saying he was entitled to be angered by Atkinson missing a foul by David Luiz on Rooney that should have earned the Chelsea defender a second yellow card.
"He [Ferguson] is a man who, since 1986, has been building high-performance teams and when mistakes are made he will get angry, and in the 76th minute that was a big mistake," Bevan said. "If you're going to interview managers after a game when so much is riding on these games, particularly a game of such high profile, then unfortunately you will get emotions going over."
you couldn't make this shit up
i wonder how big his fucking envelope is
