Ferguson criticised referee Mark Clattenburg for his decision to
dismiss Darren Fletcher in Manchester United's 1-1 draw at
Birmingham City on Saturday evening.
Ferguson has only recently served a two-match touchline ban for
criticising the fitness of referee Alan Wiley earlier this season
and has a two-match suspended sentence hanging over his head from
the FA. But that did not stop him questioning the performance of
Clattenburg .
"I saw him [Clattenburg] referee Arsenal against Spurs recently
and someone needed to take out an axe to get booked and then he
sends someone off for that," said Ferguson.
"There were some weird and wonderful decisions going on out
there. The linesman gives offside for our goal and it's an
own-goal! (which negates offside). And he still gives offside."
The FA have said they will study Ferguson's comments and it may
be reviewed by an independent commission.
