Sam Allardyce has backed Cardiff City boss Neil Warnock for his furious reaction to his side’s controversial defeat to Chelsea on Sunday.
The former England manager also took aim at Jamie Carragher, after the Liverpool legend came to the defence of the linesman who failed to spot Cesar Azpilicueta was offside for the Blues’ vital equaliser.

Neil Warnock lost his temper on the touchline
Chelsea came back from a goal down to beat Cardiff 2-1 through two late goals.
Warnock was absolutely fuming with match day officials, claiming their poor performance at the Cardiff City Stadium cost his relegation-threatened side crucial points in their fight for survival.
The veteran boss then sparked controversy by telling talkSPORT on Monday his wife said she ‘wouldn’t have stopped him’ punching the referee if he wanted to, and went on a lengthy rant against the state of refereeing in the Premier League.

But while some people have criticised Warnock for his strong reaction, Big Sam said he had every right to be angry as there is more than just football at stake if Cardiff go down this season.
“For the manager to keep his cool when something like that happens is virtually impossible,†Allardyce said on Tuesday’s Sports Breakfast.
“When you’re holding so much responsibility in your hands and somebody makes a very, very poor decision like that…
“He shouldn’t have made that decision, and to say he couldn’t see it was unacceptable.
“I agree with Neil – you know what’s riding on that? Anything between 100 and 120 jobs, because if Cardiff go down they will be cutting costs across the board.
“Peoples’ livelihoods will be finished and you’re responsible for that as a manager, to keep the team winning, to keep the club in the Premier League and keep all those people in employment.

Warnock engaged in an intense stand off with the officials after the defeat to Chelsea
“We just think about the players, yet the players will get sold on and move on – it’s the staff who will get cut down and 50 or 60 or them will be made redundant.â€
Allardyce also believes Carragher was wrong to ‘make an excuse’ for the officials, after he used a VR headset on Sky Sports to apparently prove it was ‘impossible’ for the linesman to spot that Azpilicueta was offside for his goal.
Big Sam added: “Jamie Carragher can do what he wants with his headset, brilliant, but he’s making an excuse for the assistant referee and he shouldn’t.â€
