no one likes players acting like spoilt brats... so on the face of it... fining a club for 'failing to control' them during a period of bad behavior...
so it's hardly surprising that the club has been fined 30 grand for the protests during the Soton game when Adrian was sent off.
Now the thing that got me thinking was this...
Adrian's red card (which I will admit... I thought was bang to rights he totally should have been sent off) was actually (and i'll be honest again, i can't understand why) rescinded...
Which makes my monkey brain think... if the red card was rescinded then it must have been given incorrectly at the time... so if the players were protesting the giving of the red card (presumably because they thought it was being given incorrectly... then by the red card being reversed... makes them right!!!!
So how can they (or the club) be fined for their protests when the FA has actually backed their protests by reversing the red card...
