Warnock brands Premier League refereeing situation 'a disgrace' after Cardiff 'experiment'

The Bluebirds boss questioned the decision to choose an inexperienced referee for his side's meeting with Watford at Vicarage Road

Cardiff City boss Neil Warnock says the selection of officials for his side's 3-2 Premier League defeat at Watford on Saturday was "a disgrace".

Two late goals from Cardiff made a tense finish of a match Watford had totally dominated for 80 minutes, with Gerard Deulofeu, Jose Holebas and Domingos Quina sending the home side into a 3-0 lead.

The deficit could, in truth, have been far greater had it not been for the heroics of Neil Etheridge in the Cardiff goal.
