Former Sunderland manager David Moyes was fined 30,000 pounds by the Football Association yesterday for telling a reporter that she "might get a slap". Moyes, who made the comments to the BBC's Vicki Sparks after Sunderland's goalless Premier League draw against Burnley in March, apologised for his remarks but was still judged by the FA to have brought "the game into disrepute". "You were just getting a wee bit naughty at the end there, so just watch yourself. You still might get a slap even though you're a woman," the Scot was filmed telling Sparks over questions she asked in an interview. The BBC said at the time that Moyes and Sparks had spoken about the exchange and resolved the issue between themselves. "David Moyes has been fined £30,000 in relation to comments he made," the FA said in a statement. "It was alleged his remarks were improper and/or threatening and/or brought the game into disrepute."
