(Reuters) - Stoke City manager Mark Hughes has been fined 8,000 pounds by the Football Association after a coat-throwing touchline tantrum during his side's 5-1 English Premier League defeat at Newcastle United.
Stoke had Glenn Whelan and Marc Wilson sent off in the 40th and 43rd minutes with Hughes throwing his coat behind him and into the air when he was sent to the stands by referee Martin Atkinson for protesting Whelan's red card in last month's clash.
