    Just taken this from the BBC site and am glad that Hiddink came up with this at his press conference. A few more honest managers like him would help football no end.

    Fourth official should get a special mention also.


    Chelsea and West Brom have been charged by the Football Association because of the conduct of their players in a 2-2 draw on Wednesday.

    The charge relates to the reaction of players when Baggies midfielder Claudio Yacob escaped a second yellow card for a foul on Diego Costa.

    The clubs were deemed to have failed "to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion".

    They have until 18:00 GMT on 20 January to respond.

    Chelsea interim boss Guus Hiddink believed Yacob should have been dismissed and spoke with fourth official Jon Moss during the game.

    "I told him: 'This is one of the worst referees of the Premier League I have experienced,"' said Hiddink, speaking on Friday before Saturday's match against Everton.

    "He said to me 'you haven't seen me yet', which was a beautiful remark I think."

    Don't let the north east humor be confused with the general personalities of those inept cretins. The bloke who made the comment was none other than Johnathan Moss from Sunderland. Refs aren't human, it's just makems are witty mother ****ers.. :p

    Should've looked him up, classic throwaway British one liner. I'm even more impressed with it now.

    He's only sent three people off in 17 games so he probably wouldn't have sent Yacob off anyway <laugh>
