No FA action against Dons boss

Thu, 02 Feb 17:27:35 2012

MK Dons manager Karl Robinson will not face any further action from the Football Association after he was sent to the stands during the recent npower League One fixture against Sheffield Wednesday.

Robinson was dismissed from the touchline by referee James Linnington seven minutes from the end of the game on Tuesday night following an incident involving Owls defender Reda Johnson.

The two men clashed inside Robinson's technical area and Johnson ended up on the ground.

A statement on the Dons' official website read: "Milton Keynes Dons can confirm that the Football Association have reviewed referee James Linnington's report from Tuesday night's 1-1 draw against Sheffield Wednesday at stadium:mk and will not be taking any further action following the dismissal of boss Karl Robinson."

  1. I've just watched the dvd for the first time.­ Robinson, disgrace - should have had the book thrown at­ him. Mlangford, what's the name of your guide-dog­ ??

  2. Johnson should now sue Robinson for assault, he had his­ hands round his throat.
    I don't know what DVD you­ watched Miang--- ( probably a cartoon ) but the one I­ watched shown Johnson pushing Gleeson away and then­ Robinson grabbing Johnson by the throat,
    The FA­ probably threw it out because they did not want to get­ invoved in a possible court case for assault.

  3. The DVD of the incident proved Robbo was innocent and­ he got his red recinded plus the FA had a laugh at­ Reda's antic's. Hopefully he will now be hauled­ before them and fined heavily. Cheating scumbag just­ like the rest of the Sheff Wed team

  4. This decision is completely wrong Robinson should be­ bard from the bench for the rest of the season and­ Johnson should sue him for assault.

  5. Amazed the FA got something correct for a change !!!­ Reda should be given a hefty fine for outrageous­ simulation.

  6. Wrong outcome - all Johnson did was push gleeson away,­ Robinson should not have become involved and he­ definately should not have put his hands round Johnsons­ throat.
    Johnson should take him to court fo assault.
