I haven't seen the moaning about Wenger influencing the refs. That's just silly talk. I don't think Fergie is losing control, I think he's just extremely frustrated that United fielded a very weak side by their standards and the ref seemed to be out of the game. Granted, Evans should have been sent off for his challenge on Drogba, but the Fletcher free-kick and subsequent goal that only went in because of Drogba's raping of Brown was just the final straw in a game that saw far too many missed calls.
Fletcher may also be frustrated because of his card in the CL that is not able to be appealed and we all know that was a horrid decision, and then the chelski match, he was in the controversial call again.
Wazza just likes to run his mouth. We all know that.. but the FA has warned him, so he needs to be careful. As far as Fergie, I see at least a 3 match sideline ban coming down from the FA in regards to his previous remarks. Let's be honest here though, Fergie is no where near being the only one who is going on about the officiating. Rabid and casual fans alike can see that the level of officiating this year has been suspect, and it's a shame to have the game to a point where every thing is so highly scrutinized because of the seeming lack of professionalism by the refs.
As far as rafa goes, I doubt he'll be sacked even if they don't make the knockout stages of the CL. With Hicks trying to secure funds for the club, the last thing he wants is a manager sacked and a replacement coming in when 'pool are flailing in 7th in the league and are potentially ( I see it happening) out of the CL at this early of a stage.
