​Cardiff boss Warnock charged for Chelsea comments

Cardiff City manager Neil Warnock is in trouble with the Football Association.

Warnock has been charged for comments he made in his post-match interview after a defeat to Chelsea.

He was critical of the poor refereeing performance, where the linesman missed a clear offside on Chelsea's equalizing goal.

However, the FA found his comments inappropriate.

"Neil Warnock has been charged with three breaches of FA Rule E3," the statement said.

"It is alleged that comments he made in a post-match interview with the BBC, and a post-match interview with Sky Sports, following the Premier League game against Chelsea on March 31, were improper in that they questioned the integrity of the Match Official and/or implied bias.

"It is further alleged that comments he made in a TalkSport Radio interview on April 1 constitute improper conduct and/or bring the game into disrepute.

"The Cardiff City manager has until 6pm on April 16 to provide a response."
