Fleetwood Town boss Pete Wild has been given a three-match touchline ban by the Football Association for misconduct.

The 42-year-old admitted a charge of acting in improper manner but denied the use of threatening words/and or behaviour towards a match official that saw him sent off around half-time in the defeat at Grimsby on 22 February.

The regulatory commission found the charge proven in its entirety and imposed the ban alongside a £1,350 fine.

Fleetwood are 12th in League Two and host Port Vale on Saturday.

Wild will also miss matches against Colchester United and Tranmere Rovers.
