As an addition to the previous post I've just seen this ridiculous article by Jeff Winter (laughing described as "a top official" by The Sun) in which he says:
"Very early in my Premier League career I sent Roy Keane off and incurred Fergie's wrath for doing so."In the course of the next two seasons I did not get a single Manchester United game, even though I refereed every other Premier League club at least five or six times. I was not afraid to stand up to him and I think he knew that.
"With his latest remarks, Fergie has probably de-selected Martin Atkinson for the potential title decider with Arsenal."
Which, as I argued in the previous post, is the rather silly FA-are-scared-of-Sir-Alex argument. Especially silly in this instance, given just how many times Sir Alex has slagged off Atkinson and how many times he's come back to referee our games.
