FERGIE FINED £4'500
disciplinary meeting yesterday in which he apologised for
insinuating that the Champions League draw was fixed. He
also pointed out that he had publicly withdrawn the remarks
since.
UEFA communications director Mike Lee said:
“UEFA's control and disciplinary body decided to impose a
10,000 Swiss franc fine (£4,500) on Sir Alex Ferguson for
improper conduct to the media. The body took into account
the fact that Sir Alex had already been fined previously by
UEFA.
"Sir Alex gave a very substantial and unequivocal
apology to the committee. He had withdrawn his claims in
public and has now done it in private. We trust he won't
repeat this in future."
