Irish Premiership: Crusaders appeal after Baxter fine and ban
Last updated 1st Feb 2022
Crusaders boss Stephen Baxter has been banned for six games after disciplinary issues during his side's game with Glentoran earlier in the month.
The Irish FA's Disciplinary Committee imposed a four-match suspension for "unsporting conduct towards a match official,"
Baxter also received an automatic two-match ban after being shown a red card during the game on January 21st for "using offensive, insulting or abusive language and/or gestures."
The club which were fined £100, have launched an appeal.
Elsewhere, Glentoran were charged by the committee with a breach of Article 33 of the Irish FA’s Disciplinary Code (spectator misconduct) and sanctioned with a £500 fine in relation to their game with Cliftonville at Solitude on January 17th.
