Howard Webb has revealed he once booked Chelsea legend Didier Drogba for missing kick-off because he was "having a number two".

According to the former Premier League referee, who retells the hilarious story in all it's glory in the above BT Sport video, the incident occurred in a game against Middlesbrough.

Webb describes how the players returned to the pitch for the second half of the clash and the action resumed, despite Chelsea being down to ten men.

Suddenly Drogba, who was "sat on the toilet" and unaware that the match had restarted, came running out of the tunnel to join his teammates.

The referee claims that he was still "pulling his trousers up" as he made his way onto the pitch and received a yellow card for his tardiness.

Webb made the unusual - albeit hilarious - revelation when asked to recall the strangest booking he ever had to make.

The question was asked after Shettleston goalkeeper Gary Whyte was sent off for urinating behind his goal on Saturday.

The West of Scotland Super League First Division side were hosting Shotts Bon Accord when he was given his marching orders in the 72nd minute.
