Jose Mourinho couldn't help himself when he found the tactics employed by his Cardiff City counterpart to be time-wasting in a 4-1 win over the visitors, on 19 October 2013.

Mourinho repeatedly voiced his frustration to the referee Anthony Taylor and fourth official Trevor Kettle.

He vented his anger over the fact that Taylor warned Ivanovic for time-wasting tactics, instead of the Cardiff players, who had been involved in the misdemeanour from the beginning.

It was then that Taylor had seen enough of Mourinho, and ordered him off the technical area in the 70th minute of the match, forcing him to sit among the fans for the remaining 20 minutes.

Later on, he was slapped with a fine of £8000 as per the FA regulations, which the manager accepted.
