I am afraid I have to point out a mistake in that article. Dugarry is accused of spitting at an opponent which does not mean he did. The furore arose after 2 Sky commentators, Villa fans both, decided to make an enormous issue of it. At the time, neither the ref, nor the alleged gobee saw anything untoward. This post has been brought to you courtesy of the Christophe Dugarry rapid rebuttal unit.
