Have you seen the ref in the Nantes v PSG game? He ran across a Nantes player who accidentally knocked him over. Ref then lashed out by kicking him and then gave him a second yellow and sent him offGood job is wasn’t in our game - Fergie would probably have a heart attack
I didn't think I'd be saying this so soon after our game yesterday but this ref here is even worse than Haines! Beggars belief does that.
Why didn't the player lamp him? If you're going to get sent off for something, you may as well make sure it's worthwhile.
Incredibly, after the sending off, he starts the game with a free kick to PSG in the place where the ref fell over.
Nantes chairman Waldemar Kita said Chapron should be banned for six months for the "scandalous" incident."It's a joke," Kita told French TV. "I received 20 text messages from all over the world telling me that this referee is a joke."If I talk too much, I will be summoned by an ethics commission. We have no right to say anything."

BUT think it through. He didn't have the view that we had where it's clear the player was watching the game and the ref suddenly veered across his path and last sec he put his hands out which made the contact. For the ref, he'd have felt a push, tumbling at speed, oldish guy hitting the ground - its a shock. Then add on the pressure, feeling a fool in front of the whole stadium, and fearing being made an ass of, so he did the only thing for someone with a fragile ego and without the nouse to check with the lino, and the players.

At least the ref has come out and said he was wrong and reacted badly, he's also asked for the second yellow card to be cancelled.I bit more of that from referee's and they might get some sympathy
