Newcastle United man facing further action after official statement & three-match ban

As the Magpies led 1-0 and Unai Emery’s team was down to 10 men after Jon Duran was sent off, tensions in the tunnel erupted at halftime, leading to additional red cards for Villa analyst Victor Manas and United assistant Jason Tindall. When Newcastle and Villa failed “to ensure that their players and/or technical area occupants did not behave in a way which is improper and/or provocative within the tunnel area,” the FA opened an inquiry and subsequently filed charges against them.Manas and Tindall, meanwhile, are accused of “acting in an improper manner.” The deadline for responding to the charges is Monday, January 13.

When asked about the incident, Eddie Howe, the manager of Newcastle, responded, “I saw plenty [of the incident].” “If you’re going to send him off, you could certainly send 10 to 15 people off as well. I’m not sure the specifics of why he was sent off; it would require some clarification from me. I’m not entirely certain of the charges against him.A “20-man melee” is not that far off, in my opinion. These things never begin with the goal of occurring the way they did. Probably 17 or 18 individuals were attempting to defuse the situation, but it appears like additional people are now involved, and nobody wants to witness that.Although it’s not how I want my players and staff to behave, there are instances when you have to defend one another and stand up for what you believe to be right.

I was right at the top of it, but I’m not entirely sure what happened because it all happened in a blur. I believe that the events of the first half are causing frustration to burst forth. Since the incident, Tindall and Manas have been permitted to remain on the touchline; but, if proven guilty, they would be banned. When Villa plays West Ham United in the FA Cup third round on Friday night, Duran will serve the last game of his three-game suspension. Villa felt that Duran’s stamp on Fabian Schar was an accident, hence they were upset at the decision to send him off. An appeal was filed, however it was later dismissed.
