Liverpool forward Ryan Babel has been fined and warned about his future conduct by the football association after admitting a charge of improper conduct relating to comments and images posted on twitter concerning referee Howard Webb.
Babel incurred the wrath of the governing body when tweeting a doctored photo of referee Webb wearing a Manchester United shirt following Liverpools 1-0 defeat at Old Trafford. Babel wrote: "And they call him one of the best referees? thats a joke"
Babel later apologised for his comments and posted : "my apology if they they take my posted picture seriously. this is just an emotional reaction after losing an important game. Sorry Howard Webb.
