Warnock was fined £20,000 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 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. Cardiff manager Neil Warnock has criticised the FA for employing a barrister against him The 70-year-old was charged after making controversial comments following a loss to Chelsea '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. '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, 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. Warnock said it was 'a bit out of order' employ a barrister and the FA just want 'robot managers' '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.' Share or comment on this article: All rights reserved for this news site dailymail and under his responsibility
