Abidal's sending off was indeed very harsh, as was not giving Chelsea at least 1 or 2 pens, swings and roundabouts spring to mind.
It's very sad, especially for CFC, that such an inept referee was given such an important game. Being a lover of the italian game, the Italian football federation used to give high profile games to Colina, what's wrong with giving the biggest games to the best refs?
To suggest a referee would balance things up is outrageous Warren!!!!
