Mikel Obi Charged With Misconduct by Clerverly: 5:46pm On Nov 22, 2012
Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel has been charged by the FA over the Mark Clattenburg race row after the referee was found to have no case to answer.

Mikel accused Clattenburg of using racist language towards him during Chelsea's defeat to Manchester United last month.

Mikel was charged for alleged use of threatening and/or abusive and/or insulting words and/or behaviour in or around the officials changing room.


The Nigerian stormed into the ref's room after the match after being told by team-mate Ramires that Clattenburg had called him a 'monkey'. Mikel did not hear anything at the time.

He does not deny the charge but will request a personal hearing to explain the mitigating circumstances. There has been no apology from the club.

Clattenburg hasn’t refereed a game since and is now clear to return to official duty. He will be named on Friday for one of the fixtures next midweek.

Very wrong of Mikel. Such a thuggish behaviour from a player of his calibre. Shoudn't have made his claims based on what his fellow team mate told him. I hope he is severely reprimanded.

If the grave accusations he made against Clattenburg are found to be false , Mikel, Ramires (kondo' head) and Chelski(the shekpe club) should be punished to the 'fullest' extent.

it was not found to be false.
It was just a case of absense of concrete evidence.
Clattenberg is lucky he is in a racist country.
Crazy brits.!

Anyway mikel is a big-boy.
He will probably be given 3-4 match ban,with a chicken-change fine.
It's nothing serious.
Re: Mikel Obi Charged With Misconduct by aieromon(m): 7:46pm On Nov 22, 2012
I wonder when Mikel started taking English lessons from Ramires. Silly move considering the fact that team mate Mata did not press further with any charges.

Go for your private hearing and take banana till you go yoo grin

Re: Mikel Obi Charged With Misconduct by searay2(m): 7:47pm On Nov 22, 2012
British taught Nigeria everything. See how there are going to treat this case. I doubt if they will give Mikel a fair hearing.

Off-Topic: I blame all NLders for this. They believe England is a saint.

I'm almost certain Clatt didn't make any racist remarks, we all know the accusations are cheap shots from a losing side, who feel they have been wronged by the ref in such a high profile game.

Allegations like that should be handled more carefully but they (CFC) blew it up when they weren't even sure of the real details and then started going back and forth like:

Mata heard it - but Mata denied

Ramires told Mikel he heard it - Ramires must have heard wrong because english is not his first language and he wasn't the closest person to the ref.
and on and on . . . .

Accusations like that can actually ruin a ref's career and they should apologize to Clattenburg.

Sign of illiteracy by Mikel. How can use base your claim on hear say. Someone told you and went up to the referee to accuse him. Too bad.
