England and Chelsea FC defender Ashley Cole has apologized for his offensive comments he posted on Twitter on Monday, Oct.8 about the English FA's published reports on the John Terry racism verdict.
It is suggested Cole's testimony in the John Terry hearing may have not been solid in which FA said "considerable doubts," were casted over the defender's statements.
After the verdict was passes Cole took to his Twitter account and posted the following. "Hahahahaa, well done #fa I lied did I, #BUNCHOFTW***."
Cole's tweet was taken down soon after it was posted with Cole apologizing in person to the Football Association's chairman David Bernstein.
"He apologised immediately on Friday and he came to see me last night and apologised to me personally. He showed real contrition. He said he was really sorry. He is free to play for England over the coming matches. It is up to the manager to decide whether he plays or not." Bernstein told Radio 5 Live.
The FA chairman was had gone on to accept Cole's apology but an insider told ESPN that Cole was upset when the FA panel questioned the validity of evidence he had given.
According to ESPN the insider said. "It came out as if Ashley had not told the truth in his evidence. This is clearly not the case as far as Ashley is concerned and that prompted his tweet,"
Cole is in line to play for England in the next two World Cup qualifying matches against San Marino on Oct. 12 and Poland next week Tuesday on Oct.16. If selected for both games it would see Cole secure his 100th cap for his country.
