Gabbidon fined over Twitter rant

West Ham defender Danny Gabbidon was handed an 'improper conduct' charge in April by the FA for a four-letter message in the wake of his side's 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa.

Gabbidon, who has since closed down his account, wrote: "U know what, f*** the lot of you, u will never get another tweet from me again, you just don't get it do you. Bye bye."

An FA statement read: "At an Independent Regulatory Commission, West Ham United defender Danny Gabbidon was fined and warned as to his future conduct.

"Gabbidon was charged with improper conduct in relation to media comments made on the social media site Twitter on 16 April 2011.

"Having admitted the charge, Gabbidon was fined £6,000."
