Richardson get four-game touchline ban

Cork City manager Damien Richardson has been fined €3000 and given a four-game touchline ban after being found guilty of misconduct following Cork's FAI Cup defeat to Longford Town.

Richardson was critical of referee Ian Stokes and the referee following the 2-1 defeat and has now been punished by the FAI.

However the fine was reduced from €5000 and the touchline ban from six games in light of Richardson's apology to the referee.
