Premier League referee Mark Clattenburg has said Sir Alex Ferguson "went crazy" on the day Fergie Time came back to haunt Manchester United.The concept of Fergie Time came about after the Red Devils scored several last-gasp goals during Sir Alex's reign.

Opposition fans accused officials of giving extra added-time when United were losing to give them more opportunities to score.However, six additional minutes was the last thing Sir Alex wanted when they were humiliated by neighbours Man City with a 6-1 hammering at Old Trafford in October 2011, as Clattenberg detailed while speaking exclusively at the launch of Ladbrokes' 5-A-Side Bet on the Champions League Final.He said: "Sir Alex used to always complain about timing.

That was his thing. You know, I can remember the day of the Manchester Derby where City came and put six past them. "They were 3-1 down and Sir Alex was shouting at me to blow the whistle and finish the match at 90 minutes.

I think I gave six minutes injury-time and they ended up getting beat 6-1."He went crazy after the match, because at 3-1 he can explain the loss a lot easier.
