da bet7k: Argentina international Fabricio Coloccini has apologised to his Newcastle United team-mates for getting sent off in the second half of Saturday's 5-1 drubbing at Bolton Wanderers.
da winzada777: The 28-year-old was shown a red card for allegedly elbowing Trotters striker Johan Elmander in the face.
The Sweden international had given Coloccini a torrid afternoon, although the defender insists he did not elbow Elmander.
He told the Evening Chronicle:"I apologised to my team-mates – that is normal. I am sorry for everybody, but now we have to move on.
"It was a red card. It wasn't with my elbow, but it was the same because it was my arm. It was a red card. It's disappointing, although I can't do anything about it now. The next time, I know I can't do it."
Coloccini will miss Sunday's clash with Chelsea at St James' Park as well as next month's matches against West Brom and Liverpool.Subscribe to Football FanCast News Headlines by Email
