Leeds boss Jesse Marsch has been fined £10,000 for his conduct during their 5-2 defeat to Brentford earlier this month.

Marsch was sent off for his reaction to the referee's decision not to award his side a penalty when Brentford fullback Aaron Hickey brought down Crysencio Summerville inside the box.

He latest admitted his language and behaviour during the 64th minute of the game was improper.

In a statement, the FA said: "Leeds United FC’s Jesse Marsch has been fined £10,000 and suspended from the touchline for their next fixture following a breach of FA Rule E3".

It means Marsch won't be allowed on the sidelines for Leeds' game against Aston Villa in October.
