well that would be one and a half games out of the first two - not bad for a player who "signed to sit on the bench "

I'm sure he predicted that Courtois would be sent off in the first game when he signed his contract at the Kremlin.

No but he will have signed knowing anything can happen and not looking just to get a arse full of splinters

Let's revisit this at the end of the season.

Should get an extra games ban for a frivolous appeal, and Mourinho should receive a touchline ban for histrionics

I'm amazed the press give him such an easy time over his intimidation of match officials. I thought Ferguson was bad, but Mourinho is much worse. Some managers will just go to any length to get an edge until they're told. No one says anything to Mourinho - or not enough. So he carries on

 

[Blue Hefner]

That's ridiculous!
On what grounds could they appeal?

 

[RandomJ]

Watch them get the red card rescinded even though the ref got it spot on.

Wouldn't be surprised in the least. They'll want both sides at full strength so honestly I'm expecting them to rescind it.

How ridiculous!

That was as clear a sending-off as you could wish to see.
