OUCH! Referee Chris Foy subbed off after freak incident

Poor old Chris Foy.

If he's not incurring the repeated wrath of Jose Mourinho, he's lasting barely a minute as referee of Newcastle versus Swansea.

Foy was the victim of a freak accident in which he took a clearance from Fabricio Coloccini full in the face in the opening minute of Saturday's Premier League clash at St James' Park:

Ouch!

Foy took it in good humour, and initially seemed fine, but was soon forced from the field complaining of nausea. Hardly surprising.

Fourth official Anthony Taylor took over officiating duties in a game that was eventally won 2-1 by Swansea to ease their relegation fears.
