Abbott is relieved to have avoided further punishment from the FA

The Football Association has confirmed Carlisle boss Greg Abbott will receive no punishment for being sent to the stands in September's draw at Leeds.

Abbott was dismissed from the dugout after querying the Leeds penalty decision and admitted it was a relief to be cleared of further action.

"They have acknowledged that no foul or abusive language was used," he told the club's website.

"I'm pleased with the outcome and it is good to be able to put it behind us."
