Wigan
owner Dave Whelan has been given a £50,000 fine and six-week ban from
football-related activities for his comments on Jewish and Chinese people.
Last
month, Whelan accepted a
charge but denied making racist remarks.
The
78-year-old had requested a non-personal hearing from the Football Association
who gave the punishment.
However,
the FA Disciplinary Commission said it was "satisfied" that Whelan
"is not a racist" and did not intend to cause offence by his
comments.
