Cardiff manager Neil Warnock has branded the Football Association ‘out of order’ after he was hit with a £20,000 fine this week.
The Bluebirds boss is not happy with the FA for employing a barrister to present the case against him at a disciplinary hearing, and says the ‘just want robot managers’.

Neil Warnock has accused the FA of squeezing the humour out of football
Warnock was fined on Wednesday for remarks he made about Premier League officials in three separate interviews, following the controversial 2-1 home defeat to Chelsea on March 31.
The 70-year-old – who was furious after that game – has accepted the fine after calling Premier League officials the ‘worst in the world’, but says he is bemused by the FA’s disciplinary procedures.
“When you get an institute like the FA, as big as it is, I find it disappointing that they’re allowed to bring in an outside barrister to prove the case against me,” Warnock said on Friday.
“He had all the information on what my arguments are three to four weeks before and [time to] get his head around it. It’s a bit out of order if I’m honest.”

Warnock was hugely disappointed with the officials following Cardiff’s defeat to Chelsea
Warnock, who was represented by the League Managers’ Association at the London hearing, said his evidence consisted of similar comments made by Chelsea head coach Maurizio Sarri, that the FA ignored.
“I was disappointed in the first two charges,” Warnock said.
“I didn’t think they warranted being proven guilty, not when we showed them an article what Sarri said about referees less than three weeks ago and he never got a charge.
“They just want robot managers, the humour has gone out of the game.”

Warnock also fears his Cardiff side could be relegated by former club Crystal Palace this weekend.
Cardiff must win their final two games, at home to Palace on Saturday and at United next week, to have any hope of overtaking Brighton and avoiding the final relegation place.
Brighton have a four-point advantage and a far superior goal difference ahead of their final games against Arsenal and Manchester City.
“If we don’t win this game against Palace, we can forget it,” Cardiff boss Warnock said.
“But we are up against a side that play some of the best football in the Premier League away from home. We have to hope we can cope with that and our forwards can create chances.”
