During injury time of the Carling Cup final, which Chelsea won 2-1, referee Howard Webb sent off three players. Adebayor, Toure and Mikel were the players to see red, which sees Mikel with his second red card in just twelve starts for Chelsea.
Adebayor showed his unhappiness with the decision as he was forced off the field, and Chelsea left back, Wayne Bridge, says he understands why. “The referee sent the wrong man off,” he said. “I can understand his (Adebayor) frustration at getting sent off. There must have been a mix-up between the ref and his linesman.”
There must have been a mix-up between the ref and his linesman. I’ve almost HURT myself laughing. That has got to be the understatement of the year.
We need officials that can keep up with the line of play and that have 20/20 vision. Ok mistakes can be made but there are far too many of them where it concerns Arsenal. This needs to be sorted and NOW!!!!!
