Morecambe boss Adams given one-match ban

Derek Adams received two yellow cards in the opening 22 minutes of Morcambe's league draw with Colchester

Derek Adams has been banned from the touchline for one match and fined £500 after being charged with misconduct by the Football Association.

The Morecambe manager was sent off for a second yellow card offence in the opening 22 minutes of the 3-3 draw with Colchester United on September 14.

Shrimps defender Luke Hendrie was also later dismissed as they came from 3-1 down with seven minutes left to pick up their first league point of the season.

Adams was seen clashing with the fourth official and admitted a charge that he "had acted in an improper manner and/or confrontational manner towards the match officials."

Adams will serve the ban at Fleetwood on Monday as Morecambe seek to climb off bottom spot in League Two.
