​West Ham boss Bilic cops £8,000 improper conduct charge

West Ham boss Slaven Bilic and his assistant Nikola Jurcevic have each been fined £8,000 after admitting to an improper conduct charge.

Bilic was sent off by referee Michael Oliver after throwing a TV microphone to the ground in reaction to Gareth McAuley's injury-time equaliser for West Brom at London Stadium.

Both were later charged by the Football Association.

A West Ham statement said Bilic and Jurcevic both admitted the charge.

It added: "The manager and assistant manager will both be available to sit on the bench for the Premier League visit to Watford on 25 February."
