Carragher escapes FA censure for referee criticism

LIVERPOOL defender Jamie Carragher will not face any disciplinary action from the FA in the wake of his outspoken criticism of referee Mike Riley.

Carragher was angered by Riley’s failure to award Liverpool a penalty for an apparent handball by Tiago in last Saturday’s home defeat by Chelsea.

The same official was also responsible for the controversial penalty awarded to Manchester United against Arsenal at Old Trafford in October.
