Villa boss O'Neill admits improper conduct charge after rant at ref Riley

Aston Villa manager Martin O'Neill has been warned about his future conduct by the FA following comments made about referee Mike Riley after the 3-2 defeat at Manchester United last month. O'Neill was angry that Riley did not award a foul in the build-up to Federico Macheda's dramatic late winner, and with the amount of time added on. He said: 'What was it? Five minutes added time? I'm sure we wouldn't have got it at Villa Park.' O'Neill admitted a charge of improper conduct. He escaped a fine but was ordered to pay costs.
