Newcastle defender Mike Williamson hits back at claims he got himself sent off on purpose against Leicester City

Daily Mail  

Aside from captain Fabricio Coloccini, Newcastle do not have any other senior centre-backs to cover Williamson's suspension Carver felt that Williamson was looking for an 'easy way out' He was accused of being dismissed on purpose by Magpies head coach John Carver after the game Mike Williamson was sent off during Newcastle's 3-0 defeat by Leicester Mike Williamson has hit back at John Carver's accusation the Newcastle United defender deliberately got himself sent off against Leicester City. Newcastle defender Mike Williamson was given his marching orders against Leicester City on Saturday Williamson scythed down Leicester's Jamie Vardy even after the ball had already gone out of play Magpies head coach John Carver accused Williamson of getting himself sent off on purpose 'There was absolutely no intent to hurt Jamie or get sent-off, but I recognise that I should have been more composed and measured in my determination to win the ball,' he said in a statement. Newcastle is a club torn apart, with supporters singing venomous chants against owner Mike Ashley, and verbally attacking players as they boarded the team bus following the 3-0 loss to Leicester City. Expectations that Steve McClaren would leave Derby County to take over the head coach role this summer have swirled around the clubs for weeks, possibly undermining Carver's position among Newcastle's players.
