Notts County manager Mark Cooper has ordered Liam Noble "not to come back" to Meadow Lane for the time being after his red card against Cambridge United.
The midfielder lashed out against Darnell Furlong in last weekend's fixture at County's ground, which finished 2-1 to the visitors.
It was his third dismissal of the campaign and sixth in two seasons, earning him a five-game suspension and ruling him out for the rest of the season, plus the first three matches of 2016-17.
Cooper said: "I thought it was disgraceful. As much as I like him as a player and as a lad, I can't condone that.
"That's probably symptomatic of the problems that have gone on this season.
"It's not the first time it's happened and there have been too many incidents.
"I spoke to him after the game and I told him not to come back. I will ring him when I want to speak to him.
"He is not training with us. I sent him back to Newcastle. He's now got some time off and I will deal with him when I want to."
Noble's out of contract in the summer, with the likes of Portsmouth and several League One clubs reportedly interested in him.
