Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has
expressed anger at the decision to overturn Chelsea captain John
Terry's sending off against Manchester City last weekend.

The
Scot believes the appeal verdict was influenced by Keith Hackett, head
of the Professional Game Match Officials Board, and not referee Mark
Halsey.Ferguson, quoted in The Times, said: "From what I have
heard, Keith Hackett has told the referee to rescind the red card and
he wouldn't do it. If it had been a Manchester United player, Keith
Hackett wouldn't have done this."He added: "If the referee has made a mistake, this is going to happen all the time."Terry is now free to face United this weekend.
