ANDONI Iraola believes fining Cherries and Chelsea after there were a record 14 yellow cards in their clash last weekend is ‘good business’ for the Premier League.
Both sides were fined £25,000 for picking up more than six bookings in a game.
Asked about what he makes of the fines, Iraola laughed and said: “I think it's good business!
“Good business for them.
“At the end, you are the one that gives the bookings and you will receive money for the bookings.

“It's perfect for the league.
“It's dangerous for us, for Chelsea, for Bournemouth, because you can miss games because of these things. But these are the rules.
“We cannot change them. It was for me, quite a clean game. But if we had the yellow cards, we have to pay, I suppose.”
