Arsenal have been fined £65,000 for failing to control their players after Myles Lewis-Skelly was sent off in their win over Wolves.
Arsenal have been charge by the Football Association (FA) with failing to ensure the proper conduct of their players following an incident at Molineux on January 25.
The club accepted the charge, before คาสิโนออนไลน์ UFABET ฝากถอนรวดเร็ว เริ่มต้นเล่นง่าย an independent regulatory commission took action.
A crowd of Arsenal players surrounded referee Michael Oliver in the 43rd minute after he showed Lewis-Skelly a straight red card for a foul on Matt Doherty.
Video assistant referee Darren England upheld Oliver’s decision that Lewis-Skelly had committed a serious foul. The Gunners appeal against the decision, and the 18-year-old’s three-match ban was later overturn.
After the game, a member of the Professional Football Referees’ Association board revealed that police were investigating “threats and abuse” directed at Oliver and his family on social media.
Despite winning the appeal, Arsenal admitted to the FA charge, leading an independent regulatory commission to impose the £65,000 fine. The club’s frustration was evident at Molineux, but the governing body remains firm on enforcing rules regarding player conduct.
While Arsenal secured the three points, the fallout from Lewis-Skelly’s red card continues to spark debate over officiating consistency and player reactions.
