Tottenham's Keane facing £120,000 fine

Tottenham striker Robbie Keane faces a massive £120,000 fine for his strop in being hooked by coach Juande Ramos during Sunday's defeat to Manchester City.

The Sun says the Irish striker is looking at the maximum rap of two weeks' wages after chucking his tracksuit top to the ground when he was subbed.

Ramos has already shown he will not tolerate any player questioning his authority or tactics.

He cracked down on Pascal Chimbonda when he threw a wobbler in the Carling Cup final.

Having set the benchmark by fining Chimbonda two weeks' wages, Ramos will find it impossible to ignore Keane's behaviour.
