Getafe coach Bordalas (again) sent off: Around me a tremendous lack of respect!

Getafe coach Jose Bordalas was again sent off in defeat to Real Sociedad on Sunday.

With his job on the line, it was the second time in a week that Bordalas has seen red.

Afterwards, in his report, ref Pablo González Fuertes noted: "In the 90th minute, the coach Bordalás Jiménez José was sent off for the following reason: Leaving the technical area, entering the field of play, to face a player of the opposing team".

After the defeat, Bordalas defended his actions, insisting: "I have nothing to say, I am not going to talk about that issue, I am not going to comment on anything. It is a very natural play that occurs every day in football. I tried to get the ball out quickly. You have seen the rest."

However, later he snapped: "Around me there is a tremendous lack of respect. The only thing I ask is respect from everyone, players, referees, from everyone. It is nonsense. Now I am very calm, because I act with total respect towards everyone. You can all see it and I'm not going to talk about it any more."

Former Spain coach Robert Moreno is being linked with Bordalas' job.
