Chelsea’s Jose Mourinho has been charged by the FA with misconduct for claiming referees are afraid to give penalties to Chelsea. The self-acclaimed Special One made the statement in a post-match interview after his team lost 3-1 against Southampton.
The ex Real Madrid manager had said, “I think it is time to be honest and say clearly that referees are afraid to give decisions to Chelsea. At 1-1 there is a huge penalty and once more we do not get it. It was at a crucial moment in the game. I repeat, if the FA wants to punish me they can punish me, it is not a problem.”
The FA in a statement said: “It is alleged his remarks constitute improper conduct in that they allege and/or imply bias on the part of a match official or match officials and/or bring the game into disrepute.”
The Portuguese has until 6pm on Thursday 8 October 2015 to respond to the charge.
The withdrawal is temporary though. Super Eagles forward, Victor Moses has pulled out of Super Eagles international friendly matches against DR Congo and Cameroon scheduled for 8 and 11th of October in Belgium.
In a letter to the Nigeria Football Federation, Moses said he was opting out in a precautionary move against injury. The 24 year-old took to his twitter account to explain his decision.
“Unfortunately I’m not fully fit and so can’t go with Nigeria this week but want to say I’m proud to be Nigerian and love my country.” He wrote.
Reacting to his decision, Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh said, “We have no choice now but to work with the other players who are available.”
Shridhar Chillal is the man with the longest fingernails in the world, Guinness Book of Records has announced. The 78 year-old hasn’t cut his fingernails since 1952. The combined length of the nails is 909.6cm. One of his thumbnails alone is two metres long.
Keeping them really brought him a lot of troubles. “When I was to get married, no one was ready to marry me, I saw nearly 10 to 12 girls. If the girl agreed to marry, her parents would say I would strangle their daughter’s neck and refuse. If the parents agreed, the girl would say she would not marry such a dirty person. Our family members opposed, then teachers were opposed but I decided from that point on that I would never cut my nails again,” he said.
He continued, “Initially, difficulties appeared everywhere in my daily life. My family really didn’t like it, no one would wash my clothes and I had to wash them by hand. Finding a job was also difficult, as no one was ready to employ me..I can tell everyone now with pride about my record. When I am on my travels, people will recognise me as a Guinness World Records title holder.”
English club, Chelsea have once again reiterated their support for under-fire manager Jose Mourinho despite his poor start. Mourinho has come in for much criticism of late with his side sitting 16th in the Premier League table, having recorded just two victories from eight games so far this term.
Saturday’s 3-1 defeat to Southampton was the latest disappointing result, with the Portuguese saying in the aftermath that he would resign if he lost his players’ trust.
However, Chelsea released a statement on Monday saying that they believe Mourinho is the right man to turn their fortunes around.
“The club wants to make it clear that Jose continues to have our full support,”
“As Jose has said himself, results have not been good enough and the team’s performances must improve. “However, we believe that we have the right manager to turn this season around and that he has the squad with which to do it.” The statement read.
