Chelsea fined over Man Utd ruck

Chelsea have been fined £30,000, severely censured and warned as to their future conduct for failing to control their players during the Barclays Premier League match against Manchester United.

The club had admitted the charge, which related to the conduct of Chelsea players towards referee Mike Dean following the sending-off of Mikel John Obi during the Old Trafford clash on September 23.

Obi was red-carded in the first half of his side's 2-0 defeat for a studs-first challenge on United defender Patrice Evra.
