Arsenal and Manchester City have both been fined by an independent Regulatory Commission after both sets of players surrounded the referee at different times during their Premier League fixture on Wednesday 15 February, the FA have confirmed.
Arsenal have been fined £65,000 after the club admitted that it failed to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion during the 56th minute of the fixture at the Emirates Stadium a couple of weeks ago.
As a consequence, an independent Appeal Board has imposed an additional fine of £20,000, which had been suspended from an earlier determination relating to the club’s breach in their game against Oxford United on 9th January.
Manchester City have been fined £75,000 after the club admitted that it failed to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion during the 42nd and 64th minutes.
