Charlton Athletic manager Phil Parkinson has been fined and warned about his future conduct by the Football Association following an incident in last month's 3-1 defeat at Carlisle United.

However, the former Colchester United boss has escaped a touchline ban.

The Addicks manager was dismissed by referee Mark Haywood after the Cumbrians were awarded a controversial 40th-minute penalty, which Carl Ikeme saved only for Ian Harte to score from the rebound.

Speaking after the game, Parkinson had said: "I was annoyed that it was a penalty. I lost my cool, which isn't good.

"It's a passionate game and sometimes these things happen and emotions get the better of you."
