From TeamTalk.comRichardson to contest FA charge
Chesterfield manager Lee Richardson is set to deny a Football Association charge of improper conduct and seek a personal hearing.
Richardson was last week charged in relation to an incident that occurred during the Spireites' 3-1 defeat to Lincoln at Sincil Bank on October 18.
Richardson had a verbal exchange with referee Michael Jones at half time which resulted in the Blues' boss watching the second half of the game from the stands.
A club spokesman said: "Following advice from the League Managers Association, Lee Richardson is denying the charge and is seeking a personal hearing."
