At a Regulatory Commission hearing today, Manchester City forward Emmanuel Adebayor was fined £25,000 and given a suspended two match ban.
Adebayor admitted a charge of improper conduct relating to his goal celebration during City’s match against Arsenal at the City of Manchester Stadium on 12 September.
In reaching its decision the Commission took into account his admission of the charge, public apology and the extremely provocative nature of the abuse he received. However, the Commission also stated that players have a responsibility to conduct themselves in a proper manner and that such celebrations are unacceptable and have the potential to cause a serious public order incident.
The two match ban was suspended until December 2010 and will be activated in the event of a similar breach of FA rules.
