Millwall and Bradford fined by the FA after admitting charge
MILLWALL have been fined £6,000 by the Football Association after the club admitted a charge of misconduct.
The breach of rules relates to a mass brawl during the Lions' FA Cup third round replay against Bradford last month. The Bantams have been fined £3,000.
An FA statement read: "The charge was that in or around the 28th minute of the fixture, both clubs failed to ensure their players and/or officials conducted themselves in an orderly fashion and/or refrained from provocative behaviour.
"As well as being fined, both clubs were also warned as to their future conduct."

What happened when there was trouble at Derby v forest? Sweet FA!
We're a small club, the big boys with all the money get away with it!
I hate the FA and all the c**** associated with it
Typical!!! should have been fined the same at least, NOLU
Fair enough small fight equals fines but why are we paying double dodgy Fa c****
That's the money put by for a new striker gone!!
B******s to The FA and anyone else who hates us
Player runs on pitch and attacks forest players. Nothing. Millwall and Bradford have some handbags and both get fined yet our fineIis doubled. Same old FA. Nice to see them impartial as usual. If I was JB I'd be demanding to see the rationale as to why our fine is double that of Bradford City. NOLUWDC
It's double becuase it's about the 3rd/4th time this has happened this season. This kind of thing happens most games yet we get punished every time.Like others say Derby fan runs on pitch and tries to chin a player and it's swept under the carpet. If that was Millwall the ground would be shut down for fear of safety of the players.
I believe Den of hate/shame is the preferred tabloid headline along with a quick cut and paste from Wikipedia on our history.
Just a smack botty for us and a weeks wages for Hoyte. Could have been worse.
Dunny started it, but he should have gone down like a sack of spuds when the Bradford players retaliated! The Italians do it all the time, so Mr. Fabrinni needs to give some lessons please!
Thought that there manager got sent off not ours.
L@LETEMCOME: seen alot worse as a mfc fan.saying that fordy fordy
@LETEMCOME: This just goes to show how biased the F.A are towards us. It's one rule for us and another rule for everyone else. Makes my p!ss boil.
@Syd the Lion:
Biased against us not toward us
The FA hate the sight of us and yes if the Derby thing happened at the den they would have shafted us good and proper, then our other admirers the sun newspaper would of had us on the front page telling everyone we are the scum of the earth! The FA would love to see us relegated, would'nt it be nice to stay up and stick it to those t******!!
dunne should pay for this as he was the culprit, its cos he was to slow to get to their player hanson, on another note, a close friend of mine who`s in the know has told me that shittu, chaplow, hoyte & wollford have been told by ollie that theyve got to train with the youngsters or they wont get paid, as theyve been told theyve got no future at the club as they are the ones causing the unrest of the other players, the other ring leaders he said have now gone they are the only 4 that are left !
@mfcjon:
There is a photo (13) on the official website of woolford training with the first team, but no shittu, chaplow or hoyte though.
@rowanonthewing7: Shittu, Hoyte and Chaplow have been told they're surplus. What I don't get is why they haven't been paid off. They are not going to be playing anymore for us so forget about appearance or win bonuses. You'd think they'd take the balance of their contract money and get their agents to look for a team that would take them. They are just going to be a bad influence if allowed on the training field. Woolford is back in favour as Martin and Cowan are injured and I'm told that he wasn't one of those to be told he's surplus - but rather that his game time might be limited but that's changed now.
@NICKOLA: How do you know this?
Who'll fords been training with the 1st team until martin & Paris are fit that's why mate
Wool ford sorry
@mfc JON: how does your mate know all this??
I can't say as it might jeopardize his job there sorry, you never know who might be watching, the only reason that wool ford has been seen training with the 1st team is because of injuries to martin & paris
Less than five mins earlier the same was done to shittu the ref gave f*** all then dunne does it & Hanson acts like a big baby. Both there manager & assistant was sent to the stands & we end up with double the fine. FA c**** need to sort themselves out. W****** the lot of em.
@block 28: the fa used to be repected around the whold..now there the laughing stock of world football..bunch of amateurs running our game.
What strikes me as unusual is that no players were sent off and the referee carded a few. I thought there was supposed to be no retrospective action if the referee deals with the players involved during the game? If Costa was booked for treading on Can he wouldn't have got a three match ban. What a farce? FArce
When are we going to see a headline taht will make everyone happy ?
How about this one-
'Millwall scoop-Striker signed. Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and Man Utd. to hold internal scouting investigation.
Perchance to dream.
@NICKOLA: or 'Holloway calls it a day'?
@lion.ie: Sorry, you said 'everybody', not just me though?
Once again Fordey was the only one to stand up and be counted. Typical brainless Dunne starting all that when he should have been more bothered about getting back into position. Hope Beevers starts with the Hoover Sat although not holding out much hope and to be fair shouldn't change a back four after a clean sheet. Come rain or shine...
@Crittalllion: I actually thought it was quite funny when he pushed the bloke into the advertising board, but that's just me.
@MFC Lion: if shittu done it everybody would sing his name but coz it was dunne all the powder puffs start crying & slagging him off.
@block 28: spot on .too many people on here are just waiting to jump at the first chance to s*** him off..the've been pretty quite of late cos of his performances..but show them a old film and there gobbing of again..pps
@block 28: Powder puff?Interesting...It was a brain dead thing to to and I'd say the same regardless of who done it.The fact Dunne is brain dead and has been nicking a wage for 10years is irrelevant.
@Crittalllion: didn't beevers get sent off in the 6th minute now that's what u call a brain dead thing to do not barging someone off the pitch.
@block 28: I agree with you there,although his was a mistake not an intentional being a mug to hide the fact his a poor footballer. I know that appeals to fans like yourself by the sounds of it but personally I'm bored of it. Anyway see you on Sat, I'll be the 6ft 5" powder puff fan signing my heart out
@Crittalllion: last man & he takes him out but it's alright it was a mistake at 6ft 5. You really are a big powder puff
