Dons to pay fine for indiscipline

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/h/heart_of_midlothian/8873858.stm

 

Aberdeen have been fined £5000 for poor discipline during the previous campaign. Dons players were shown 10 red cards and 74 yellows.

 

However

 

Hearts have been hit with a record £60,000 fine after a sixth successive season of poor discipline.

 

The Scottish Football Association have ordered the Tynecastle club to pay £50,000 within 30 days, with £10,000 suspended until January.

 

The SFA have penalised Hearts every year since the 2004-05 campaign.

 

And the Edinburgh outfit were again the worst offenders in the Scottish Premier League last term, with 10 red cards and 89 cautions.

 

In 2004-05, Hearts had to cough up £5,000 for accruing an unacceptable amount of cards from referees.

 

And that sum has risen each year as the club have consistently failed to improve their conduct on the pitch.
