Don’t let Gunners intimidate you, Allardyce warns referee

SAM ALLARDYCE last night accused Arsenal of being the worst team in the Premiership for intimidating referees.

On the eve of the crunch clash at The Reebok, Bolton manager Allardyce warned referee Andy D’Urso not to cave in to constant carping from Arsenal’s players.

Bolton, four points above West Ham in their relegation battle, are still angry at the dismissal of Ivan Campo at Highbury in a heated match in September and Allardyce has raised the temperature ahead of today’s 12.30 televised clash.
