Fulham's Alvaro Arbeloa fined £25,000 for bias comments
Alvaro Arbeloa, the manager of Fulham, has been fined £25,000 ($33,000) by the Football Association after making comments suggesting that officials would not allow Manchester United to lose. These remarks were made following Fulham's 1-1 draw with Manchester United at Craven Cottage in September, where Matheus Cunha equalized for United in the 89th minute.
Arbeloa admitted to the charge and has also received a warning from the FA, which stated that he acted in an improper manner by implying bias and questioning the integrity of a match official. Currently, Fulham is at the bottom of the Premier League standings with only two points from their first six games.
