June 19 (Reuters) - Tottenham Hotspur were fined 75,000 pounds ($100,710) by the Football Association on Thursday for crowd misconduct after the club's supporters were heard making homophobic chants during their Premier League match at Manchester United ( MANU ) in September.

The club condemned the incident at the time and said they were working with local police and stadium security to identify their supporters who participated in "abhorrent homophobic chanting" at Old Trafford.

Spurs were charged in November. An independent regulatory commission imposed an action plan, 150,000 pounds fine and a warning, after the club admitted to the charges. The fine was reduced to 75,000 following an appeal.

"It was alleged that Tottenham Hotspur failed to ensure its spectators and or supporters... conduct themselves in an orderly fashion and don't use words or otherwise behave in an improper, offensive, abusive, indecent, or insulting way with either an express or implied reference to sexual orientation around both the 49th and 79th minutes," the FA said.

Spurs will kick off their 2025-26 Premier League campaign on August 16 against Burnley at home. ($1 = 0.7447 pounds)
