FA paid Guardiola

The English Football Association fined Manchester City manager Josep Guardiola because of the yellow stripe he had put in support of Catalan politicians. Guardiola is fined 20, 000 pounds and is warned not to show any more political bias. Earlier this week, Guardiola said he had not put the tape to proclaim the independence of the Catalan region, but `as a sign of sympathy for four people in prison, but they did nothing toobliges them to be in prison `. The coach has in mind local politicians who are still detained on charges of unconstitutional action last October when an improvised referendum on separating the northeastern region of Spain was organized. This consultation was declared illegal by Madrid. FC Barcelona`s former midfielder and coach will continue to wear the strip but out of the pitch in his private life.
