Brighton midfielder Dean Coxis in hot water after being dropped from the first-team squad by boss Dean Wilkins for disciplinary reasons for the second time in three months.

The 20-year-old was axed for Tuesday's win against Gillingham after acting petulantly when substituted in the second half of Saturday's 1-1 draw against Leyton Orient.

Cox is also reported to have made derogatory comments about some of his team-mates while sitting on the substitute's bench.

Wilkins told The Argus: "It's a disciplinary issue that will remain in-house. We'll have to see if he plays on Saturday, but at the moment he isn't involved."

Earlier in the season Cox was dropped following a dressing room bust-up.
