"Mark Hughes has been fined 8,000 pounds after he accepted the standard punishment following his FA misconduct charge," the FA said in a statement.

Stoke, who have conceded 14 Premier League goals in five games, are bottom of the table with one point.

They host Hull City in the League Cup third round on Wednesday.
