Jose Mourinho: Chelsea manager calls FA fine a 'disgrace'
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho says his Football Association fine is a "disgrace" after being ordered to pay £50,000.
Mourinho had claimed officials were "afraid" to award his team penalties after Robert Madley denied the Blues a spot-kick in a 3-1 loss to Southampton.
It was announced on Wednesday that the 52-year-old had also been given a suspended one-match stadium ban.
However, the Portuguese is unlikely to face further punishment from the FA.
"I'm happy I don't have an electronic tag," said Mourinho on Thursday.
"£50,000 is a disgrace. The possibility of getting a stadium ban is astonishing."
Mourinho also had another dig at Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger - without naming the Gunners boss.
He felt aggrieved Wenger went unpunished for calling referee Mike Dean
"weak" and "naive" following Arsenal's 2-0 defeat by Chelsea last month.
Mourinho claimed the FA had set a
dangerous precedent by rescinding a red card given to Arsenal's Gabriel, who had been sent off for kicking out at Chelsea striker Diego Costa.
Wenger also faced no action after
pushing Mourinho in the Stamford Bridge technical area in October 2014.
"Afraid costs £50,000. Weak and naive - you can do it," added Mourinho, who signed a new four-year deal at Chelsea in August.
"We can push people in the technical area. We can, no problem."
