"?The FA have released the transcript of Newcastle United midfielder Jonjo Shelvey's offensive rant against an opposition player that saw him receive a red card, as well as a five-match ban in the EFL Championship.
The incident occurred during Newcastle's fixture against Wolves. The Magpies' Vurnon Anita was sent off, and with Wolves player Romain Saiss waving an imaginary card prior to the red card, Shelvey got involved and reacted to the taunt.
And according to the "?Mirror, the FA revealed that Shelvey supposedly referred to Saiss as an "Arab" or "Arabic" following it up with "c***" and/or "p****".
It is also alleged that the Newcastle man used the word "Moroccan" towards Saiss in an 'abusive and insulting manner'.
Despite dismissing that he had uttered these words to the player, the former Liverpool playmaker did admit to calling the opposition player "smelly breathed p****" in answer to being called a "bald c***".
The list goes on, as the 24-year-old also admitted to calling Wolves' Dominic Iorfa a "peasant" in a separate incident in what Shelvey claims he said was a response to the Wolves defender calling him a "f****** p****" - something Iorfa denies saying.

The former Swansea star chose not to appeal the decision and will now serve a five-match ban as well as being hit with a £100,000 fine for the incident, but Shelvey maintains that he did not use offensive language.
In a statement following the announcement of his ban, the ex-Swansea player said: ""I am very disappointed and frustrated with the outcome of the hearing. I strongly maintain that I did not use the offensive language that has been alleged.
"Despite my strong disappointment, we think an appeal is very unlikely to change the panel's decision on the case, so I have decided not to take that option."
