Norwich City's Gary O'Neil says sorry for dismissal

Norwich City midfielder Gary O'Neil issues an apology on Twitter following his red card away at Stoke City.

Gary O'Neil has apologised to everybody connected with Norwich City for the red card that he received during last night's 3-1 defeat away at Stoke City.

The scoreline at the Britannia Stadium was locked at 0-0 in the 31st minute when the Norwich midfielder clattered through the back of Stoke winger Ibrahim Afellay on the touchline.

Referee Neil Swarbrick instantly dismissed O'Neil, who left his side to play for almost an hour with 10 men.

"Apologised to all the lads & the staff @ Ncfc. Massive apology to all fans as well! Made a big mistake. Out of character. Won't happen again," the 32-year-old wrote on Twitter.

It was the second time that the former England Under-21 international has been sent off in his career.
