Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho appeared to be in a bad mood at his book launch in London yesterday, which came 24 hours after he was fined £50,000 by the Football Association and given a suspended one-match stadium ban.

The Portuguese used the occasion to label the governing body's decision "an absolute disgrace", and has since revealed that he plans to appeal the fine handed to him.

While Mourinho was happy to take certain questions from the assembled press, he opted against answering one journalist's poser, before informing his press officer that he would not be engaging in any sort of discussion with another positioned at the back of the room.

Mourinho also hinted this week that he does not plan on seeing out his career at Stamford Bridge.
