FA fine West Brom manager Slaven Bilic

The FA have fined West Brom manager Slaven Bilic £8,000 after he admitted to a charge of improper conduct during Saturday's 5-2 Premier League defeat at Everton.

Bilic, 52, was shown a red card by referee Mike Dean for his complaints at half-time after defender Kieran Gibbs was sent off for pushing Everton's James Rodriguez in the face.

"Slaven Bilic has been fined £8,000 after admitting a charge for a breach of FA Rule E3 and accepting the standard penalty," the FA said in a statement.

"The West Bromwich Albion manager's behaviour on the field of play at half-time of the Premier League fixture against Everton on 19 September 2020 amounted to improper conduct."
