Boss Jim Magilton has been charged with using abusive and/or insulting words to referee Mick Jones during the incident which saw the official send him to the stands during last week's game at Stoke City. The Town manager was unhappy with the way the home side were using the multi-ball system to their advantage.
Magilton has until March 13th to respond to the charge but told the club site that he has already decided not to appeal: "I won't be appealing over the decision, there is no point.
"I'll have to take my punishment and get on with it, but there will be managers up and down the country that would have behaved in the same way as I did.
"We don't have multi-ball at our club because we don't need it. Our ballboys and girls throw the ball back as quickly as they can for both teams.
"I'd like to see the ball thrown back to us as quickly as it is to the home side when we are playing away, but it doesn't always happen. In short, I'd like to see the multi-ball system banned."
Magilton was fined earlier in the season for a similar offence at Burnley after referee Colin Webster had disallowed Pablo Couñago's late equaliser. The Blues boss could face a lengthy touchline ban as he was also fined £500 and banned for two matches for the same reason at Preston last season when Mark Clattenburg was the referee.
