BOTH the FA and the Football Association of Ireland have been fined following England’s Nations League clash with Ireland.
The Three Lions won the match 2-0 in September thanks to goals from Jack Grealish and Declan Rice.

Uefa have dished out fines after fans from both teams booed the national anthems at the Aviva Stadium.
England supporters were deemed to have jeered throughout Amhran na bhFiann.
The FA has been slapped with a £10,500 fine as a result.
Ireland fans drowned out God Save The King, with the FAI being told to pay £8,400.
England‘s fine was greater because the booing was deemed a repeat offence.
Both associations were also hit with further fines after disorder plagued the fixture in Dublin.
Uefa hit the FAI with bills of £7,800 for lighting flares and £5,000 after a fan ran on to the field of play.
The FA was also fined £4,150 after an England fan dashed onto the pitch.

England’s win was their first under interim boss Lee Carsley.
Irish fans had prepared a hostile welcome for the returning Rice and Grealish.
The £100m stars had played for the country before switching allegiance to England.
A banner at the Irish end of the ground proclaimed “The snakes are back” alongside pictures of the pair.

Carsley is set to take charge of the Three Lions’ games with Greece and Ireland later this month.
He will then finish his interim job and return to his former role with the England under-21s.
Thomas Tuchel has been hired as a full-time replacement for Gareth Southgate and will start his new role in January.
