Yep, it would have been a travesty if he didn't to be honest. Nobody on either side has come close to him today.

Because the referee made a mistake which he will probly have to explain to whoever is above him, but he didn't start acting like a child who wants a new toy.
And your point is?
Both were at fault, which I said. However referee's get away with murder, if I made as many mistakes as a professional as referee's like Clattenburg and Rennie do I'd get the sack.

He's been like this all pre-season too, incredible.nikebee said:
Rooney should be near fully fit for Newcastle, hopefully Carrick will be also
Still need a top quality striker (cant believe this hogwash about SAF being interested in Henry)

were into pennies. Ronaldos not on so atleast we wont miss one 
The referee can't act like a child who wants a new toy simply because it's his decision.
Players aren't payed to get decisions correct in that respect, referees and linesmen are. Sometimes they get hard decisions wrong which is fair-enough... but blatant ones like that are ridiculous.
It's like Mark Clatenburg (sp?) last year when Carra rugby tackled somebody in the box.
I can accept mistakes if they're one offs, but they're not. They happen for all teams, week in week out, and the cost teams dearly sometimes.
The FA is so concerned with respect, that no one is allowed to question referees anymore, not even the FA themselves. The standard of refereeing in what is possibly the best league in the world is not good enough.
If a player or a manager isn't good enough, he loses his job, refs seem to get their contracts extended.

I don't think Giggs has been that bad today, considering where he's being asked to play.

You do realise that referee's get warnings and even stopped from refereeing top games if they have bad performances. When your at work do you stamp your feet and shout at people like a big ******* girl. Tevez and Nani are pathetic, and with this new rule i'd be expecting them to get a lot of yellow cards.
He full-nelsoned Lescott and pulled him backwards down in the box and Clattenburg had a perfect view.
I probably would stamp around that much if the person in charge was so incompetent, yes.
You say Tevez is 'pathetic', but that's the first time in 2 years I've seen him ever react, but you obviously don't watch properly.
Because SAF loves him as much as Scholes
In this match it doesnt matter that much (esp as FC is slightly injured, no one else to play upfront)
But I really hope that he gets less starts this season
Giggs was the worst player on the pitch, including theirs.
He broke down almost every attacking move we had, his passing was abysmal, he's slow, he played about 3 hospital balls I can think of off the top of my head.
