Goes some way to explaining the attrociously biased decisions he gave at Anfield

Apparently it's 'normal' for referees to accept such gifts from United. I'll bet - and serving members of 'independent' FA panels too, doubtless.

 

Billion pound businesses seek to take advantage of ref shock DD I'd be more surprised if anyone thought they weren't as bent as the proverbial 9 bob note.

Halsey in fairness wasn't even the worst in terms of being ****e so....

The problem's the whole set up. Do you think a KGB connected Russian mafia gangster type football club owner (not that we know any of them) would think twice about trying to "influence the result" of a poxy football match.

 

If its acceptable that they get freebie match tickets and invites to club sponsors do's etc the twats should be open about which club/clubs they've accepted from, its all a bit underhanded and sly.

 

It's very underhanded and sly mate yeah. If true I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised though. I'd be more surprised if the FA wasn't riddled with corruption tbh.

 

All I remember from last season about him was that he ****ed us at home vs United. Now we know why.

 

is there even a mention of it on the beeb? couldnt see it anywhere.

Anyways, I dont need a rag to tell me Halsey is dirty, his performance in that game made it clear he's on the take.

 

Just another example of how the FA don't fit in with every day working practices, complete lack of management, order and governance!

 

There is an article about us signing Alberto (and Henri Ryan too) with not one single quote from anywhere

 

its the cash in envelope that comes after thats the issue.

utd start with the "free tickets" then if a ref shows he's up for the take they probably then have the "lackey in the corridor" show the ref into his dressing door and hand over the 5k or whatever the going rate is on the day.

explains how paul scholes never got as much as a sniff of a card at home but in europe where refs are corrupt but utd can't get the bribe in safely he got shed loads.

Yup i think utd should be hauled in here and stipped of all titles and relegated to league 2 post haste.

 

sadly they wont lose titles if there is anything to answer to.

using Rangers as an example they just got relegated to bottom division, that's the worst utd would get as well i reckon.

 

refs are like any other profession, closed ranks. Halsey will get plenty fo support cos they all receive sweeteners

 

He's a cheating fat scumbag. I always thought he was that bad at his job that he had to be shady.

 

It's all Suarez's fault

 

Dave Whelan is set to give out a good reference.
