Burnley mascot Bertie Bee sent off and put in cell after offering official his glasses

Burnley mascot Bertie Bee endured a stint in the cells on Saturday after being sensationally sent off for unsporting behaviour during the top of the table Championship clash with QPR.



Bertie got his marching orders when he jokingly went to hand a pair of glasses to the assistant referee following a contentious decision in the first half.



Referee Simon Hooper failed to see the funny side though, sending Bertie off.



However, far from merely being sent down the tunnel or into the stands, Bertie was next spotted behind bars in a makeshift 'jail'.
