The new bookings systemwas introduced in the Football League at the start of this season in a bid to curb abusive behaviour by managers.Referees are permitted to award managers a yellow card for dissent, with a second booking leading to a red card.A straight red card can also be awarded in cases of serious abuse towards match officials or rival coaches and players.Evans received yellow cards for his conduct in Peterborough’s match at Charlton on August 21, with Gillingham on September 21 and against Accrington on October 20.His fourth indescretion, triggering the suspension, came in last Friday’s 1-1 draw with Coventry. The FA said in a statement: “Peterborough United manager Steve Evans will serve a one-match touchline suspension with immediate effect after receiving his fourth stage one warning this season for misconduct in the technical area.”Evans’ assistant Paul Raynor is currently on three yellow cards.
