Two poor calls against us vs WBA
Hilarious refereeing against Sunderland where Suarez was fouled and got booked instead of a penalty.
One of the worst refereeing displays in Premier League history against United. A ridiculous red card, United given a pathetic penalty and we had two stonewall penalties turned down.
And the most blatant penalty you'll ever see against Norwich.
Who else has had 8 major decisions, the majority of which weren't even close to being 50/50 calls, go against them in the league this season??
Also worth pointing out that the referee who reffed United vs Spurs was demoted to LEAGUE TWO after Ferguson complained about him, whilst Mark Halsey went unpunished for his display between Liverpool-United. A match which took place 3 days after he sat next to Ferguson during a dinner for some organization, and 2 days after Ferguson moaned about United never getting penalties at Anfield. Halsey then went on to give another pathetic display in the Fulham-City game where he gave Fulham a non-existent penalty and turned down two clear penalties for City. And again, has not been punished.

Won't comment about the decisions this season but repuation precedes some players even though it shouldnt. Suarez will probably always be considered a cheat (and a racist) by many. You reap what you sow.

Ah I see, so because the drunken scot came out and publicly accused him of being a diver after he'd spent an afternoon embarrassing United defences, he is known as a diver.

I think you are talking about Suarez not gerrard?
i didnt say he is a diver, i said he is a known cheat, im quite sure he is a diver too but no incident sticks in my mind so i'll save it...athough he has been carded for diving more than any other player in the league.
dont blame him at all for handballing in the world cup its good thinking and paid off for the team but the consequences of unsportsmanlike behaviour for Suarez may have extended beyond a red card.
Anfields5thKing wrote:And United fans having a go at Suarez is hilarious, a team who's success in the last ten years has been built on divers like RVN and Ronaldo and now features the talents of Nani, Young and Wellbeck who are easily the three of the biggest cheats in the English game now. Numerous ex-United players have stated in autobiographies that Ferguson encourages diving.

He's been carded about 4 times for diving, 3 of which have been shown to have been fouls. Like the O'Shea tackle against Sunderland this season. Clear penalty but Suarez got a yellow card.
United fans are in no position to slate Suarez's handball in the world cup. Especially when Ferguson stood and applauded Solskjaer off the pitch for this:
Once Mohawked Pete wrote:I do think, however, that a change in the laws is necessary. Why should a player not get a penalty, if he is fouled, and somehow manages to keep his feet, even though he may have lost the chance, or the defending team gain an advantage?
IMO Suarez was fouled, and had he not stopped himself from falling, and then threw himself to the floor, we would not have been talking about this, and rightly he would have been awarded a penalty.
