Clattenburg may not referee again

The former referee, Jeff Winter thinks Mark Clattenburg will not officiate a match again if it is proven that he racially abused a Chelsea player in Sunday's game at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea submitted a formal complaint to the Premier League on Sunday night that alleged Clattenburg used "inappropriate language" towards two of their players during the 3-2 defeat to Manchester United in west London, with club officials briefing that one part of the allegation concerns language of a racist nature.

Winter, who refereed for over 25 years, thinks Clattenburg will not be able to take to the field of play again if he is found guilty. "If a match official has used racial insults or language to a player then he's for the high jump," Winter told Radio 5 Live. "He won't be getting a four-match or an eight-match ban, it'll probably be the end of his career, but that is if indeed he did say anything."
