Then Everton are on the attack, totally outnumbering the defenders. They are just about to shoot on goal, and the referee blows his whistle. Three minutes 30 seconds added time on the clock.
Am I on a different planet, or is that not more than enough evidence for an FA inquiry into the referee's behaviour?

Gynn, gynn, were talking Manchester United here mate, didn't you know Fergie sets out the rules on time keeping, to be adapted by the ref to suit every occasion, obviously the ref could see United were in danger of throwing all three points down the drain so he took the appropriate action. No doubt there will be an inquest into why the ref allowed Everton to equalise in the first place, all that hard work gone to waste, especially with the Fat Lad not in the right frame of mind to get some stick of the Toffees fans
