Is anyone else of the opinion that these were far more insidious than the average 'useless referees see nothing/never give us anything' remarks? He purported to know the motivation of an elite referee in an incredibly offensive way. However, the real problem is that he may well be right, and thus brings us ever closer to a general consensus that human nature cannot be trusted to officiate sport.

The irony was his team scored from a goal were there was a clear offside in the build up and were gifted a last kick chance to win the game with an awful call from the assistant.
 
How long until he gets some kind of ban? He's continuously found himself in front of the FA this season and just gets fines, which for a person earning as much money as he does, is nothing. Mourinho has previously faced bans for making comments as Chelsea manager, and I'm pretty sure the Hearts manager did earlier this season as well. It's ridiculous

A perfectly fair question, but I don't know if continuously is a fair comment? I can't find an exhaustive list, but it seems to me that he was fined once in December, and then this incident today? And I'm not sure two offenses constitute PI.

Also, I feel like I should point out that Heart's play in Scotland. Disciplinary procedures there don't have a huge amount to do with those in England.
