Sean Dyche left confused after Everton boss banned for touchline reaction
Everton boss Sean Dyche handed a touchline ban after reacting to a decision in the draw with Tottenham
Sean Dyche is set to be banned from the touchline for Everton’s trip to Manchester City this week.
The Blues boss picked up his third yellow card of the season in the Premier League late in the draw against Tottenham Hotspur.
Dyche reacted when he believed Beto should have been awarded a penalty with Everton chasing a late equaliser, leading to Michael Oliver giving him a booking.
It followed yellow cards given to him during the games against Newcastle United and Liverpool earlier in the season.
Asked about the booking, Dyche said: “I got booked for a poor decision. I don’t know what that is about. Everyone in the crowd, everybody in football knows it was a poor decision. I get booked for it though.”
He confirmed it was his third of the season and added: “Can they rescind yellow cards, because when they look at that! People are like ‘there’s a passionate manager running down the line’ when they slide on their knees. Are you not allowed to show passion over a bad decision? I get confused… at the end of the day it was a poor decision, I only reacted and I got booked for it.”
