It is reported that referees in England are contemplating boycotting Chelsea FC games. Anybody who follows the Barclays English Premiership would predict that such an issue could only come up in association with the name of Chelsea FC. This is not because CFC deserves anything like this but simply because they are 'hated'. They cried foul over alleged referee's 'misconduct' (read inappropriate words) in addition to two game-changing blatant errors he made during the Chelsea vs Manchester United game last Sunday and that earns them such hatred and a possibility of such an extreme action!
What did CFC do to FA? I wrote before about the charges meted out to their managers, Jose Mourinho and Andre Villas-Boas. I bet that if it was any other club making such complaint this drastic action would not have even been thought of at all.
On the other hand, I think the EPL referees are doing a great job to distract people from their recent poor performances, the one by Clattenberg being so far the worst and most blatant this season! In the same weekend Liverpool FC was denied three points due to a poor decision by a match official. A few minutes ago I saw a West Ham goal disallowed erroneously!
Love them, hate them, CFC is still very much a factor not only in EPL but in Europe. Talk about Europe reminds of the injustice by a one Ovrebo, a UEFA referee. Guess against which club. CFC.
