Report: Mourinho was sent off vs. West Ham for trying to enter referee's locker room
When it comes to barking at officials, Jose Mourinho simply can't help himself.
The Chelsea bench boss was banished to the stands during half-time of Saturday's contest against West Ham, a match which saw Nemanja Matic sent off late in the opening stanza for his second bookable infraction.
Whether that was the subject of his ire, or if he was seeking clarification for goals that were ruled out - one for offside, the other because it (just barely) did not cross the line - Mourinho reportedly took his protestations too far during the interval:
Sky reports that Mourinho tried to make his way into the referee's room at the break, which is off-limits, and was ejected. More to follow.
