Wimbledon manager Joe Kinnear received a five-match touchline ban after his third offense of swearing at officials in the space of nine months.

An FA official said “Joe is suspended from sitting at or near the touchline at all matches under the jurisdiction of the FA from December 1 to December 31”

Neil Webb set to return back to his old club Nottingham Forest in a cut-price deal from Manchester United
[hr]
Neil Webb was set to start his second spell at Nottingham Forest in the bottom of the table clash against Crystal Palace if the England midfielder could agree on terms with Brian Clough. Ex-Forest star Webb,29, was set to return to the city ground in an £800000 deal as Clough looked to strengthen the core of his struggling side. Switching Roy Keane to defense had weakened the midfield department and Clough hoped that Webb would be able to recapture the form which saw him score 47 goals in 146 appearances spanning 4 years for Forest. He had moved to Old Trafford in a £1.5 million deal but his time at Manchester United had been marred with injuries.

Middlesborough Striker Bernie Slaven hands in a shock transfer request to manager Lennie Lawrence

Middleborough striker Bernie Slaven handed a shock transfer request to the manager Lennie Lawrence. The Boro goal ace, a bargain £15000 buy from Scottish Club Albion Rovers, had been top scorer at Ayersome park for the past four seasons. But he had found first-team opportunities hard to come by in the Premier League that term and made only a brief 15-minute appearance as a substitute in their latest 4-1 defeat at Liverpool at Anfield. Lawrence confirmed Slaven’s request and said “It will be his last career move and I hope it’ll be a good one, I’ll bend over backward to help him move on quickly.”
