Tottenham have been fined £20,000 for their part in a melee in the closing stages of the 4-1 win over West Ham on Saturday.

Mohammed Kudus' foul on Micky van de Ven in the 82nd minute sparked a coming-together, with the Hammers attacker appearing to kick out at the Spurs defender before then shoving both Van de Ven and Pape Sarr in the face.

If you watch a slow motion replay of the incident Spurs quite right to not contest the charge, Destiny and Pape both involved where they shouldn't be , Pape got a two hander in the face which was worse than Micky's , Richy came charging back and ran into the shoulder off Kudus, rebounded of him and nearly knocked the Ref over , all good slapstick stuff , Charlie Chaplin would have been proud of a scene like that.

Obviously the FA expect players not to react when they get kicked or their mate takes one in the face.
Shows none of these clowns have ever played football.

If it didn’t happen wouldn’t it just have been 2 yellows?
It’s like a Post Match VAR

Trouble with football today is that the players are not that good at kicking people on the ground or throwing a decent punch, here's how it should be done 1:40 in
