Bolton boss Owen Coyle claims referees' chief Mike Riley backed his objection to Gary Cahill's red card at Arsenal.
England defender Cahill was shown a straight red for his challenge on Marouane Chamakh in Bolton's 4-1 loss.
The club's appeal over the dismissal failed, meaning a three-game ban, but Coyle said: "I spoke to Mike Riley, who also felt it was a yellow card.
"With somebody of that calibre saying that, it reinforced my belief there was a chance it would be overturned."
Riley is the general manager of the Professional Game Match Officials (PGMO).

OC: ''c'mon Mike you must agree that was never a red card?''
MR: (giggling) ''You're right, it wasn't.''
OC: ''So, can we get it overturned, then?''
MR: (guffawing) ''of course you can't, you're at Bolton, now! Ahhh Ha Ha Ha Ha!''
Mike Riley is a c*nt.

Obviously not 'nice person', as he is one.
