London - West Ham were fined £30 000 by the Football Association on Friday for failing to control their players in the goalless draw at Southampton earlier this month.
The incident occurred after referee Craig Pawson sent off West Ham goalkeeper Adrian just after the hour for handling the ball outside his penalty area.
Although Adrian's red card at St Mary's was overturned on appeal, the FA announced the Premier League club have been punished for their players' angry reaction to the Spaniard's dismissal.
