He doesn’t understand football, the feeling of what is wrong and what is right,” Tudor said. The FA said his remarks “imply bias and/or question integrity and/or are personally offensive in relation to a match official”, giving Tudor until March 23 to respond. Tottenham, who are 16th in the league, host Nottingham Forest on Sunday.
