LONDON — Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp was warned by The Football Association on Tuesday about his future conduct after he criticized referee Mark Clattenburg's performance at the weekend.

The FA did not charge Redknapp over his criticism of Clattenburg's decision to allow Manchester United's second goal in Saturday's 2-0 win over Tottenham.

"I don't think there was any decision to be made," Redknapp said. "I don't know what all the fuss was about. I think everybody must've been trying to get me banned. I'm glad common sense prevailed."

Redknapp had threatened to boycott post-match television interviews if he had been charged by the FA.

The Tottenham manager was furious that Nani's goal for Manchester United was allowed to stand. The Portugal winger scored after Spurs 'keeper Heurelho Gomes put the ball down in the belief that a free kick had been awarded for Nani's handball.
