I was curious to find out why they were fined £25,000 but we were only fined £5,000.
They were fine £15,000 recently - extract from case below, so 5th, yes 5th fine for the same thing in just over 4 years so that's why their's was 5 x higher than ours.
".The Regulatory Commission considered previous sanctions imposed on AFC Bournemouth with regard to breaches of Rule E20 which are detailed as follows: (1) The Club was fined £750 for a similar incident in a fixture in February 2017; (2) The Club was fined £20,000 for a similar incident that occurred in a fixture in May 2017; and (3) The Club was fined £10,000 for a similar incident in a fixture in February 2021 14.It was noted by the Regulatory Commission that this is the fourth incident of this nature in just over four years. 4 15.The Regulatory Commission did take into account the fact that the Charges were admitted by AFC Bournemouth and read and acknowledged the written submissions. Conclusion 16.The Regulatory Commission, having carefully considered the Regulations and the mitigating factors, have imposed the following sanctions: that AFC Bournemouth be fined the sum of £15,000."
Full written reasons for their latest fine not up on FA website yet.

Is there any point to these paltry fines? They're absolute chickenfeed compared to what Bournemouth's weekly wage bill must be, to the point where the club could easily view them as worth paying if they feel there's a competitive advantage. A suspended points deduction would be much more effective.

Yes I tend to agree.

Yep that's their FIFTH offence, the most recent one last month, Barbet grabs their player who was being an idiot, 15 players rush 50+ yards for a push and a shove including our player who is on a yellow and he grabs one of their players round the the throat - yep all that's down to you know who

I like to provide balance and we actually had a discussion on RefChat about does a referee ever contribute to a game getting away from them?
Conclusion was, yes of course they can!
There's another one (National League so a cut above the Sunday nonsense I posted!) whereby the player literally pushes referee's hand away - he got a red, upheld on appeal and there was a level 3 ref on the board, who whilst admitting it was not an easy game, felt the referee could have kept a lid on it better (3 reds in total and a few mass cons)
In some ways it IS easier at the top because physical confrontation with the referee is (almost) unheard of and even the player confrontations are normally no worse than handbags!

On a lighter note, here's some more examples (All involving one club) of poor refereeing!
It is any wonder that we don't get many wanting to become ref's. The abuse, the threatening behaviour of the people watching, random guy's coming onto the field to remonstrate with the officials.
