Ref Styles took care of Chelsea owner Abramovich's drive

Ref Rob Styles has a connection with Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich - he paved the Russian billionaire's driveway!

Styles has been dropped for this weekend's Premiership round after awarding a controversial penalty to Chelsea and also appearing to book Michael Essien twice without sending him off.

The Daily Mail says Styles is on the board of builders Oakwood Groundworks Ltd, who were sub-contracted to rebuild Abramovich's drive to his estate in West Sussex last summer.
