LONDON, England -- Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has been fined 10,000 pounds ($19.626) and warned about his future conduct by the English Football Association, for his part in a touchline row with former West Ham manager Alan Pardew last month.

The FA disciplinary commission also severely censured Wenger for his " aggressive and confrontational behavior" during the dispute.

The row erupted when Pardew enthusiastically celebrated West Ham's winning goal in the final moments of the Premier League game at Upton Park on November 5.

Wenger admitted the charge.

Pardew, who was sacked by the Hammers on Monday, was also charged by the FA but has denied the allegations and requested a personal hearing.
