Turkish referee Cuneyt Cakir has received death threats following his decision to send Nani off during Manchester United’s Champions League defeat against Real Madrid.
Cakir stunned the Old Trafford crowd when he produced a straight red card after the Portuguese winger’s high challenge on Alvaro Arbeloa.
Furious United manager Sir Alex Ferguson was too angry to talk after the game, but fans took to social media in their droves to condemn the official – and some issued ominous threats against him.
More than 2,000 people ‘liked’ a Facebook page called “F**k you Cuneyt Cakir”, with one post on the page reading: “F*****g P**** hope u die.”
Meanwhile, on Twitter, fans vented their fury against the 36-year-old insurance broker.
One wrote: “The United army are coming to attack your receding hairline you daft p****.”Another said: “I actually want the blood of that Turkish referee.”
Cakir has so far refused to comment on events at Old Trafford on Tuesday night, but UEFA have confirmed he will face no censure for his performance.
United, meanwhile, will face UEFA sanctions after their reaction to Nani’s dismissal.
Swedish referee Anders Frisk quit in 2005 after receiving death threats after Chelsea lost a Champions League match in Barcelona.

Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
May the Lord bless this post.

If Ryan Giggs is a "great man" then that's probably fair enough..
