2018 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers and International Friendlies ** Spoilers ** [11th - 15th November 201

I still do not fully understand fines in football. You want to punish a club, deduct points, you want to punish a player, ban them.

Punishing the national side was the correct thing to do, but £35'000 is not really a 'punishment'.
 
Just about covers the paperwork I guess. :)

Haha, you might not be far off the mark.

I think the correct decision was made to punish the national sides who flaunted / ignored the FIFA 'laws', but a point deduction would have been a better actual punishment.
