Managers will receive yellow cards for incidents such as kicking a water bottle, sarcastic clapping or any other gesture that could be considered as attempting to undermine the match official. A red card would be handed out for actions such as violent conduct, spitting and stopping the opponent restarting play. The manager would also be culpable for punishment should any member of his or her staff in the technical area or dugout be deemed to have behaved irresponsibly.
If a manager accumulates four yellow cards, they would receive an automatic one-match ban, eight a two-match ban, 12 a three-match ban and 16 or more would result in a visit to Wembley to sit in front of a Football Association disciplinary panel. Subsequent fines or stadium bans for repeat offenders – if deemed appropriate – also will be determined by the FA.
Is it? Really? I know he had a bit of a fiery reputation at Ross County, but I can't think of any other serious touchline disciplinary problems he's had at Argyle.up_the_line":1ftz6304 said:It's starting to become a bit of a pattern for Adams isn't it.

He's an intelligent, studious manager with a fierce determination to win. He's not a foul-mouthed bully like Steve (see you next Tuesday) Evans, or a whingeing timewaster like Gareth Ainsworth, or a general end-of-a-bell like Graham Westley. He's never in their league. Thank goodness.
But I'm glad he has a temper. I'm glad he's bright enough to wind Evans up pre-match by telling him that he (Adams) is the best manager outside the Premier League. I'm glad he's ours.

Simon Cox was wrong to approach Argyle bench.
Derek was wrong to go out of technical area and allegedly swear at a player in a confrontational manner.
Powell reacted badly to the alleged swearing and he was wrong to rise arms, grab throat or whatever.
The correct sanctions would have been in my view
Red card for out of technical area and abusive language for Derek
Red card for raising arms for Powell.
Yellow card for Cox for being a twit. Or red if he swore at Derek.
