Warnock charged by FA over remarks following Chelsea loss

Cardiff City manager Neil Warnock has been charged with three offences by the Football Association (FA) for comments made after last month's 2-1 defeat to Chelsea.

The 70-year-old described Premier League officials as "the worst" in the world following the loss on March 31 and faces punishment relating to remarks he made to three broadcasters. He has until April 16 to respond.

Warnock felt aggrieved after Cesar Azpilicueta's 84th-minute equaliser was allowed to stand despite the Chelsea defender being in an offside position.

The Cardiff boss also felt his team had two penalty claims rejected by referee Craig Pawson and that Antonio Rudiger should have been dismissed for a challenge on Kenneth Zohore.
