Don't twitter, Carlton

Something tells me Carlton Cole should give up that career as a stand-up…

From BBC Sport: "Carlton Cole has been charged with improper conduct by the Football Association for his comments on Twitter during England's friendly with Ghana. The West Ham striker referred to the large numbers of Ghana fans at Wembley Stadium in comments he later deleted. Cole, 27, tweeted: "Immigration has surrounded the Wembley premises! I knew it was a trap! Hahahaha.The only way to get out safely is to wear an England jersey and paint your face w/ the St. George's flag!"

I thought it was quite funny.

Surely the frightenly all white FA can't seriously be going to condemn Carlton as racist? The organisation that failed to act against the lunatic fringe of England fans for all those years?

Obviously pedants would spell that as frighteningly....

He removed the comment pretty quickly so can't see it's worth the FA getting too het up about.

Maybe he can use the Ross/Brand "edgy humour" defence…
