Kevin Nolan yet to hear about potential Wycombe Wanderers dismissal charge

Notts County boss Kevin Nolan says he has not heard back yet from the FA or EFL about whether he will face a touchline ban for being sent to the stands against Wycombe Wanderers.

The Magpies boss was dismissed by referee Ben Toner during the goalless draw on Good Friday at Meadow Lane after protesting a decision not to award Shola Ameobi a penalty in the first half.

If one does come his way, however, Nolan says he will dispute it and is confident of having it overturned.

“I haven’t heard from them as yet,” he told the Nottingham Post.

“But I don’t expect to be. If I do I will be appealing it because I think I have good grounds for it to be turned over once they hear my side.

“I know I was in the right and the decisions I was asking for, the referee got wrong. There was no clarity from the fourth official, which is what he is supposed to be there for.

“If you had watched me on Monday (against Accrington), there was no reaction to anything because the fourth official managed the bench as well as being in constant contact with the referee throughout.

“I thought they were magnificent and I told them that after the game.”
