Manchester United receive double punishment from FA
Manchester United have received a double punishment from the FA for failing to control Manchester United players in the Premier League fixtures against Newcastle and Chelsea last month.
Manchester United accepted the charges which resulted in a £45,000 fine for the Newcastle game and £37,000 for the Chelsea game.
Manchester United players surrounded referee Craig Pawson after he disallowed a Cristiano Ronaldo goal in the goalless draw against Newcastle United.
A week later, United players surrounded referee Stuart Attwell when he awarded Chelsea a penalty for Scott McTominay’s challenge on Armando Broja in the box.
An FA statement on Wednesday read: “Manchester United FC has been fined £82,000 in total for breaching FA Rule E20.1 during its Premier League matches against Newcastle United FC on Sunday 16 October and Chelsea FC on Saturday 22 October.
“Manchester United FC admitted that it failed to ensure its players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion during the 49th minute of the Newcastle United FC game and the 84th minute of the Chelsea FC fixture.
“Independent Regulatory Commissions imposed fines of £45,000 and £37,000 for the respective breaches in the Newcastle United FC and Chelsea FC matches during separate hearings.
“The independent Regulatory Commissions’ written reasons for these individual sanctions will be published in due course.”
