The FA have given Sir Alex Ferguson a Five-Match touchline ban due to his improper conduct towards referee Martin Atkinson during his side, Manchester United, loss against Chelsea earlier this month. The ban starts on the 22nd March and runs through Manchester United's FA Cup Semi-Final match against rival, Manchester City. They have also fined Sir Alex £30,000 because of his actions.

  2. I think it is too much, the amount of managers that do this and get away with it is far to high! Plus he will miss a rival match! Can follow my blog Maria, you seem to enjoy my posts and I love a few more followers
