Inevitable, really

Neil Warnock has been charged by the Football Association for his comments following Cardiff City’s defeat to Chelsea on March 31, when Chelsea were the benefactors of some terrible refereeing that allowed a blatantly offside Cesar Azpilicueta goal to stand.

The Bluebirds boss delayed his post-match interview with Sky Sports to allow himself time to calm down, but apparently he didn’t calm down enough, as his comments have landed him in hot water.

Warnock called Premier League officials the “worst in the world” after the match and has subsequently been charged by the FA.

He has until April 16 to respond to the charges.
