Thick ear ... Wigan Athletic striker Franco Di Santo was sent off the pitch for wearing an earring. Source: AAP
Wigan Athletic striker Franco Di Santo was left red-faced, and red-eared, after being sent off the pitch during the club's match against Arsenal - for wearing an earring.
Wearing jewellery during a match is against FA rules, but referee Jonathan Moss only spotted Di Santo's offending earpiece during an argument with the Argentine over a free-kick in the second half.

Di Santo was immediately sent to the sidelines to have it removed by the club's physio and Arsenal piled on the pressure as Wigan were temporarily reduced to ten men.
Even after having the earring removed, Di Santo had to wait several minutes for the ball to go out of play before he could rejoin his teammates on the pitch, with the Wigan fans loudly booing their displeasure.
With Wigan in the midst of a relegation scrap, manager Roberto Martinez was reportedly fuming at Di Santo and is rumoured to have had a word with the striker after the match.
