STOKE City and Plymouth Argyle have been fined £24,000 and £5,000 respectively for a mass confrontation between players from both sides during their Championship match at the bet365 Stadium last month.
Both clubs admitted they failed to ensure their players did not behave in a way which was improper and/or provocative in the 35th minute of the match, which ended in a 3-0 defeat for the Pilgrims.
Argyle accepted the standard penalty while an Independent Regulatory Commission imposed Stoke's fine following a hearing and cited their 'utterly dreadful" disciplinary record.
The melee resulted from an incident when Argyle goalkeeper Michael Cooper had a boot grabbed by Million Manhoef after he had slid out to collect the ball before the onrushing City attacker could get to it.
