FACT CHECK: Has Stuart Attwell Been Suspended? Is Maguire’s Red Card Overturned?

The Manchester United community is currently buzzing with a “Breaking News” report claiming PGMOL has finally cracked down on referee Stuart Attwell following the Amad Diallo penalty controversy. The viral post claims Attwell has been suspended for two games and fined €17,000, while Harry Maguire’s red card has been rescinded.

The Verdict: FALSE. As of today, PGMOL has issued no such suspension or fine, and Harry Maguire remains suspended. Here is the true state of play.

1. The “Fine and Suspension” Myth

There is no evidence that Stuart Attwell has been fined €17,000 or suspended.

The Reality: PGMOL (Professional Game Match Officials Limited) almost never issues public fines to referees. While officials are sometimes “stood down” or moved to Championship games after high-profile errors, Attwell’s schedule for the next round of games has not been officially altered in a way that suggests a “suspension.”

The €17,000 Figure: This appears to be a completely made-up number designed to look “official” for social media engagement.

2. Harry Maguire’s Red Card Stands

Contrary to the viral reports, Harry Maguire’s red card for “denying an obvious goal-scoring opportunity” (DOGSO) has not been overturned.

The Suspension: According to official club reports, Maguire is still set to miss the massive clash against Leeds United on April 13.

The Heartbreak: This is particularly painful for the defender as he was just one game away from his 600th career appearance. He will now have to wait until the Chelsea game on April 18 to hit that milestone.

3. United’s Official Action

While the “sacking” news is fake, the club’s anger is real. Manchester United officials have formally filed a complaint with PGMOL.

The Argument: The club is focusing on the “identical” nature of the two challenges: Adrien Truffert’s foul on Amad Diallo (no penalty) vs. Maguire’s foul on Evanilson (penalty and red card).

Michael Carrick’s Verdict: The manager remains “furious,” calling the inconsistency “baffling” and “crazy.”
