Baconface has escaped disciplinary action following his remarks about referee Mark Clattenburg on Saturday.

The Manchester United boss criticised the official after midfielder Darren Fletcher was sent off for two yellow card offences during the champions' clash with Birmingham.

Ferguson implied that Clattenburg had been more lenient with players in a previous game between Arsenal and Spurs.

The 68-year-old is still under a suspended two-match touchline ban following his remarks about Alan Wiley earlier in the season but will not be facing punishment after his most recent comments.

No action
The FA ruled that Ferguson did not accuse Clattenburg of bias or challenge his integrity.

"No action will be taken in relation to Sir Alex Ferguson," a spokesman confirmed.

After Fletcher's dismissal, Ferguson said that he had been "watching Mark Clattenburg this season".

"As far as I'm concerned, I've not seen a softer sending-off for a long time. It is ridiculous," he added.

"That referee did the Arsenal-Tottenham game earlier in the season and you needed to hit someone with an axe before he booked anyone in that game."

"There were some wonderful and weird decisions tonight."

I honestly think they pity him.And he probably stinks of piss the senile old whiskey nosed twat.Think mad old relative replace with taggart.

Stop wasting your time on the old geyser. They are going belly up. Let him fade away.....

Funny how time changes perceptions.
Not that long ago, when taggart spoke the media dropped to the floor in veneration, rag fans hung onto every word as though they were sacred pronouncements and if he shouted, most of the footballing world quivered in fear.

How times change...More and more he just sounds like the noisy tramp, too pissed to make much sense but incessantly and insanely screaming abuse at passers by.

The only response to him is treat him like the sad, overinflated, egotistical gobshite he is and ....LAUGH.

So he didn't see Bellers get sent off against Bolton then? or maybe 3 weeks is a long time to Fergie?

If he didn't see that game then he's definitely slipping with his standards. I thought he used to check out his competition and close rivals.

I think he still does. Remember he's not worried about us, we are not even his derby match!

He still thinks he influences referees and officials but people are now laughing at him with his 'rants' every week and they are becoming very tiresome. If he was your grandad you put the old fucker in a home and visit him twice a year, only to check on your inheritance.

Well actually he still does. Look at the 197 mins played at OT against us.

If he was my grandad I would've killed him for all those times he touched me inappropriately and would be mentally scarred.

What about the inheritance though?

twat of the highest order

You just know the cunt will croak the week we win the title. Anything to piss on our fireworks. Stay alive you cunt and watch it happen.

I cannot wait for the day that dementia sets in and he starts to believe that he is, and always has been, a City fan !!

If we do not win the PL - I really hope Chelsea do

If those lucky fuckers were to nick it, I think that he would retire at a shot and go off in a blaze of glory

Then the next 5 - 10 years that sees these sad fuckers dwindle into history would be because he retired

I would like the sad sot to be in charge for years as we increasingly take the piss

The fact he's complaining to refs so much lately shows he's panicking about results not going his way. He fears us as much as he don't like to admit it. There is no way he wanted to retire with City above the scum in any one of these so call glory years of theirs. I think he may be planning to retire this year and us finishing above him when he does would be oh so sweet.
