Blues can borrow Bolton keeper -
Allardyce
Bolton boss Sam Allardyce is ready to come to Jose Mourinho's aid
and offer the Chelsea manager the use of one of his
goalkeepers.
The Blues are in the midst of a goalkeeping crisis after both Petr
Cech and Carlo Cudicini suffered head injuries in Saturday's
Premiership win at Reading.
And Allardyce has told his Portuguese counterpart he would gladly
loan him Ian Walker or Oman international Ali Al-Habsi.
A Bolton spokesman told PA Sport: 'Sam said yesterday we've got
three world-class keepers in our ranks.
'He suggested in the last couple of weeks that if we can get these
keepers out on loan, then that's something we will consider.
'He did say last night that if Jose or Chelsea come enquiring about
them, we will certainly talk to them.'
Meanwhile, the Football Association will look at referee Alan
Wiley's report before deciding whether to take any action against
El-Hadji Diouf for his goal celebrations or alleged bust-up with
Newcastle backroom staff during Bolton's 2-1 Premiership win at St
James' Park yesterday.
Diouf celebrated in front of the home fans after netting twice
inside two minutes, while television pictures showed him being
dragged down the tunnel by Bolton officials following his
87th-minute substitution.
'Our first port of call would be to see if the referee puts
anything in what we call an extraordinary incident report,' an FA
spokesman told PA Sport.
'We're going through those reports at the moment.
'If there was a cause for concern, the second thing we'd do would
be to contact the clubs and see if there's any observations they
can provide.'
Should charges be brought, Diouf's previous conduct - which
includes bans from both the FA and UEFA for spitting at opponents -
could be taken into consideration by the FA Disciplinary
Commission.
'When it comes to the hearing, they can bear that in mind - it's at
their discretion,' the spokesman added.
