Seems Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is up to his old tricks. Namely, thinking that the only reason the Gunners ever lose is because of referees. It looks like it's gotten him into trouble again.
Today UEFA slapped him with a 3 game European ban for comments he made to the match official after Arsenal was eliminated from the Champions League by AC Milan. Weird thing is, Arsenal won that match 3-0 (The Gunners had lost 4-0 in Italy). At any rate, the ban and accompanying 40,000 Euro fine ($53,000) were handed down for "improper conduct."
If Arsenal qualifies for the Champions League or the Europa League, which looks likely, Wenger will be serving his third such UEFA ban in a year. The other two bans stemmed from instances in last year's Champion's League, and the qualifiers this year.
Wenger has indicated he will appeal the ban.
