West Ham poised to fine Carroll for red card

West Ham manager Slave Bilic is set to fine Andy Carroll two weeks’ wages following his red card against Burnley, according to the Mirror.

The ten-man Hammers side managed to hold on to at least a point in the clash at Turf Moor after Michail Antonio’s opener was cancelled out by Chris Wood.

However, things could have been worse for West Ham, who played the majority of the match with one man less after Carroll’s antics.

He received a booking initially for leading with his elbow when challenging James Tarkowski in the air. Then, just minutes later, he crashed into a duel with Ben Mee, leading with his elbow once again, resulting in him receiving his marching orders.

Bilic was evidently furious with Carroll’s discipline so early on in the match, and is reportedly poised to deliver a hefty fine to him.

Carroll now faces a suspension, and will surely need to earn his place back in the side when he returns.
