Wolverhampton Wanderers sporting director Matt Hobbs was handed a one-game suspension for calling referee Anthony Taylor "absolutely f****** useless", the Football Association (FA) has confirmed.In a hearing earlier this month, it was alleged that Hobbs said the phrase towards Taylor after Wolves' 2-2 draw with Newcastle United at Molineux on October 28.Taylor alleged that Hobbs passed by him as he was leaving the field and remarked: "Absolutely f****** useless as usual."The referee then outlined to Hobbs that his attitude and behaviour were unacceptable to which he, and assistant referees Adam Nunn and Gary Beswick, allege Hobbs replied: "We look forward to your apology again."The game in question included a contentious VAR call where Hwang Hee-chan was adjudged to have fouled Newcastle defender Fabian Schar, with Callum Wilson scoring the resulting penalty. The FA charged Hobbs with misconduct for a breach of FA Rule E3.1 and issued a punishment of a one-match ban, which he has already served as well as issuing a £4,000 fine.Wolves have been the centre of VAR controversy on several occasions this season, with manager Gary O'Neil suggesting he had been "turned against VAR" after his side's 3-2 defeat to Fulham on Monday.Wolves are next in action against Arsenal at Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
Mourinho didn’t like his reffing in the Europa League final last year. I think he
made that quite clear by waiting for him in the car park after the game
Which was particularly bananas, since Taylor didn’t get anything wrong that night, and lead to his family being attacked in an airport, because apparently blowing a whistle is now a crime worthy of being lynched.
Arm is in a natural position and has not made his silhouette larger. Football does not expect people to run around with their arms pinned directly to their sides.
Still not worthy of being attacked in an airport by a lynch mob.
