NORWICH defender Sean Raggett has incredibly claimed he was spat at by Chelsea goalkeeper Bradley Collins on Tuesday.
Raggett, on loan at Lincoln, reveals the Forest Green Rovers loanee spat at him during the League Two clash, which sparked a mass brawl.
The Canaries defender took to Twitter to publicly slate the 20-year-old Blues goalkeeper, calling it "embarrassing".
Raggett tweeted: "Embarrassing to have their goalkeeper spit at me during the game, makes the 1-0 win even sweeter."
Meanwhile, Lincoln boss added he was disgusted by Collins' actions, saying: “Their goalkeeper spat at Sean Raggett, we’re categoric on that,” he said.
“There’s no hiding from it, that’s what he did.
“Our players reacted as a consequence. We always want our players to keep their discipline, but sometimes when you’re provoked like that, naturally you can lose your cool.
“Sean did and a few of our players who saw it did as well. But it was instigated by their goalkeeper.
“We’re really disappointed by that.
“We’re hoping the officials will be able to see a video of it. I don’t think any of the officials saw it live so I can’t blame them.
“We’ll be looking back [at the footage] because you don’t want that in football.
"It’s one of the worst things you can do to another human being, it’s so cowardly.”
