A touchline ban isnt good enough... it should be a ban from the stadfium for a minimum of 3 games like they do in Europe. |
it goes beyond that all the time, especially in games with top teams and when there our stoppages
if the FA feel he should be punished like that, im sure they will, he's neither the first nor the last manager to rant at officials though, the FA have to be impartial and consistent, so if other managers do this, they would have to be punished in the same way.
