Are referee's mikes recorded? I know they communicate with linesman, just wondering if conversations are recorded and if the microphones are constantly on. If so, then the club should challenge them to reproduce evidence of the alleged foul and abusive language. It's difficult to curse and swear to that extent without body language to go with it, and it's abundantly clear there was no swearing by Jennings. Merely a tiny tap on the shoulder, and it's just as clear the Ref took offence to being touched. That's what the red (and a straight at that) was for. Now, how can that possibly ever be a red card? FFS, a joke. And he must be slaughtered for it.
