Coloccini 'Not Malicious'

22 November 2010 12:23
Chris Hughton has defended Fabricio Coloccini following his sending-off against Bolton. Chris Hughton: "No arguments with the red card. "With Coloccini it is worth stating that he is not a malicious player. It was a frustrating afternoon for him. "I think Elmander was going to do him for pace. I don't think there is maliciousness in it." Coloccini could be joined on the sidelines by defensive partner Mike Williamson following his off-the-ball clash with Elmander. Elmander was left pole-axed after a clash with Williamson in the first half which went unnoticed by referee Howard Webb.
