I don t wont to insult anyone but premierleague managers are always complaining about referees..they can t take blame for fail and they mistakes.

Fergie is doing a bit of a Rafa, not giving credit to the opposition when it is deserved.

I'm sure in every other league the managers whine just as much. e.g if i remember right last year barca players and manager complained about chelsea's physical style and lack of protection from the referee.

i agree managers complain a lot but i don't think it is just the premier league.

if you were at the game you would of seen for sunderlands second goal the ref got in the way when nani had the ball then sunderland scored within 30seconds.

 

[rodney trotter]

well yes it depends on manager personality but look at Wenger,Sir Alex,Mourinho-when he was in chelsea,Benitez..they always complain,argue with refs...

 

[Scott]

well, yh iif he makes a mistake they are on lots of money, i dnt want to lose there jobs,

 

[Shockhorror.]

Will managers ever stop finding new excuses for their downfalls?

 

[Keith]

the refs fitness doesnt explain sunderland scoring 2 goals???

at the end of the day we played poor and we need to improve big time

 

[Scott]

this is stupid, has SIR ALEX actually blamed the ref fitness on the result, he is just saying he isnt fit enough for top flight football.

sir alex is obviously sore and full of excuses after losing. seriously, give the refs a break.
