Manchester City set to report stoppage time row fourth official Alan Wiley to FA for laughing with Sir Alex Ferguson
The repercussions from Sunday's dramatic Manchester derby continued to be felt this morning as Manchester City revealed they will report the conduct of fourth official Alan Wiley to the FA.
Manchester City boss Mark Hughes was incensed after Wiley appeared to shoo away his questions regarding where the disputed four minutes of stoppage time had come from.
The visitors' ire was then further flamed when Wiley appeared to share a joke with Sir Alex Ferguson following Michael Owen's late, late winner.
Hughes said: "The board had gone up for four minutes of additional time at the same time as Craig Bellamy made it 3-3.
"The additional time after the four minutes didn't sit comfortably with me. We feel aggrieved.
"Everyone in the stadium knew the time allotted. I would like an explanation why more was added on but I rather doubt I will get it.
"The fourth official said time was added because of our goal celebration but that lasted only 45 seconds."
Mark Hughes is still struggling to put the Old Trafford row behind him ahead of Fulham's Carling Cup visit to Eastlands.
"It is a bit raw at the moment to see any positives but we will pick the bones out of the match and be ready to go again on Wednesday in a competition that is important to us."
Slightly bitter and petty IMO.
Anyway - Both Neville and Bellamy are getting FA-ed today. It can stop the Citeh heads thinking they're being hard done to with G. Neville getting tanned -

FA will rule today on Bellamy and Neville Manchester derby charges
Craig Bellamy will discover today if he will face a three-match ban for slapping a Manchester United fan.
And Gary Neville and Manchester United will also find out if they will also be in hot water with the FA as the fall-out from the Manchester derby continues.
The FA have confirmed that they have received referee Martin Atkinson's report into the controversial clash at Old Trafford.
Bellamy lashed out at United supporter Jake Clarke, who has been charged over his one-man pitch invasion and faces a lifetime ban from Old Trafford.
Manchester City insist that Bellamy was acting in self-defence and Soho Square must decide if they believe the striker was provoked.
An FA spokesman said: "We have received the referee's report and we are making our inquiries."
The FA are also looking into Neville's antics after the Reds skipper ran on to the pitch from the bench and then celebrated in front of the City fans.
Neville could be hit with an improper conduct charge and has been warned previously by the FA over his behaviour.
United could also be landed in the dock after Javier Garrido was hit on the head with a coin.
A United fan, who was aiming for Carlos Tevez, hit him on the head with the missile as the City defender was walking off the pitch.
Meanwhile, the FA will wait for Merseyside Police to complete their investigation into El-Hadji Diouf's alleged racist outburst at an Everton ball boy before taking any action.
