Former Chelsea defender and captain John Terry has launched an X-rated attack on former Premier League referee Mark Clattenburg.
The Chelsea legend slammed Clattenburg during a UK Baller League game – a six-a-side indoor football competition.
The six-a-side tournament now features editions in the United States of America and the United Kingdom, where Terry has taken up a managerial role.
Terry, widely regarded as one of the best centre-backs in football history, is the manager of the 26ers, who recently faced FC RTW in a fixture that ended in a 3–3 draw.
During the match, tensions boiled over following a reckless challenge on one of Terry’s players.
A scuffle ensued, with players from both sides having to be separated.
The referee, Clattenburg, issued a two-minute suspension – a punishment Terry was not satisfied with.
The Chelsea icon engaged in an altercation with the officials and was caught on camera shouting at Clattenburg, as Goal reported, “There’s no f*****g point, I’ve got to do your job for you.”
Terry told Sky Sports after the game: “For me, the refs are awful. The refs are terrible, they need to take some responsibility because two of my players are trying to break up fights on the pitch after diabolical tackles.
“I don’t want to be that person coming on, the players have got to do better but the refs have got to take responsibility.”
Terry played for Chelsea for 20 years, winning five Premier Leagues, five FA Cups, and the Champions League, among other accolades.
