Plymouth Argyle and Stevenage have been fined by the Football Association for a melee between players at their League One match last month.

The clubs were charged for the "mass confrontation" which occurred after the final whistle at Home Park, a game Argyle won 1-0.

Stevenage denied the charge of failing to ensure their players/officials did not behave in an improper and/or provocative way. Plymouth admitted the charge.

Plymouth were fined £31,875, with Stevenage handed a £12,500 fine.
