Arsenal hero Martin Keown has defended Chelsea star Ashley Cole over his FA row.
Cole labelled football chiefs a 'bunch of t***s' following the release of the full report into John Terry's race-row ban.
But Keown suggested fans should have more sympathy over the 31-year-old's outburst.
"Getting involved in what he has been involved in at the moment has been unfortunate," he said.
"He has been misunderstood to a large extent."
