Jose Mourinho was ‘aggressive, animated and agitated’ in an extraordinary foul-mouthed rant at referee Jon Moss, which earned him a one-match stadium ban for tonight’s trip to Stoke.

The FA have revealed that the Chelsea boss accused Moss of being ‘f***ing weak’ and of twice refusing to leave the referees’ room as he showed ‘a total lack of respect’ at half-time in last month’s defeat by West Ham.

Mourinho admitted the misconduct charge and did not appeal against the ban and £40,000 fine before yesterday’s deadline – meaning he will be barred from the Britannia Stadium this evening.

The FA released the written reasons for Mourinho’s punishment last night, stating that West Ham’s security manager Simon Sutton had to escort the manager from the ref’s room, soon after the sending-off of Nemanja Matic and a wafer-thin goal-line technology decision going against Chelsea.

Moss’s statement read: “When myself and my colleagues left the field ... at half time, as we entered the tunnel area to get to our dressing room, Mr Mourinho ... was waiting for us clearly agitated and began aggressively asking about first half decisions.

“Rather than publicly speak to him I asked him to step into the entrance of my dressing room escorted by Simon Sutton, the West Ham Security Manager. Mr Mourinho asked me about a tackle, an offside and a goal line clearance. I gave him brief answers to his questions.

“After this I asked him to leave the dressing room area. He refused. I asked him again. After he refused again I asked Mr Sutton to escort him from the room.

“At this point Mr Mourinho became very aggressive and animated. He shouted that ‘you f***ing referees are weak … (Arsene) Wenger is right about you … you are f***ing weak’.

“I advised Mr Mourinho not to take his position in the technical area for the second half due to his actions.”

The disciplinary commission stated: “His behaviour was ... unacceptable and he showed a total lack of respect for the match officials and the sanctuary of their changing room. That is a most serious matter and has to be dealt with accordingly.

“This incident was serious because not only was Mr. Mourinho charged with using abusive and/or insulting language towards the Match Officials but he refused on two occasions to leave their changing room when requested and then had to be escorted (out).”

Mourinho claimed yesterday that his stadium ban will change him for good.

The Chelsea boss also has a further suspended one-match stadium ban in place for the next year, after claiming refs were ‘afraid’ to award his team penalties following Chelsea’s home defeat by Southampton.

And Mourinho said: “I think the message that the powers want to give me … is more than clear.

“It will change everything. The dimension of my punishment, the stadium ban that stays suspended, obviously affects everything.

“My answers, obviously, are going to be different. The way I participate with the game, obviously, is going to be different.

“I had a game a few days ago where I stood for 90 minutes on the side. The other manager (Liverpool’s Jurgen Klopp) was jumping like Michael Jordan and nothing happened. So, for me, I know everything is different. It’s all changed a lot.

“I have to adapt to it. I’m sad about it. But that’s what I have. There is no other point.”

Mourinho decided not to appeal against the ban because he was convinced it would have been a foregone conclusion that his punishment would be upheld.

He said: “No (I haven’t appealed) because I know the result of that appeal already, and I decided to give up. No, it’s stupid to fight a fight that you know you’ll already lose.”
