Chelsea fined 20K



Chelsea have been fined £20,000 by the Football Association after admitting a charge of "failing to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion" in last week's Barclays Premier League match against QPR, the Football Association have confirmed.
The fine was imposed after Chelsea players surrounded referee Chris Foy following Jose Bosingwa's red card during the 1-0 defeat at Loftus Road.
The FA announced the fine on Friday in relation to the incident and they also asked Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas to explain his post-match comments to the media about Foy and the assistant referees.
The FA said they are still considering Villas-Boas' response and have yet to decide whether to take any action.
