Exeter City coach David Perkins has been fined £500 by the Football Association after his red card against Lincoln City.

The 42-year-old was dismissed in the 86th minute of the goalless draw at St James Park earlier this month.

Perkins and Lincoln City player Dom Jeffries had an altercation after the Exeter coach held on to the ball after it was kicked into the City dugout.

Perkins admitted that he had acted in an improper manner following an FA charge.
