Hendrie given additional match ban

Sheffield United midfielder admitted charge of improper conduct.

At a Regulatory Commission hearing on 8 June, Sheffield United midfielder Lee Hendrie was given an additional one match suspension and fined £3,500.

Hendrie admitted a charge of improper conduct. The charge related to Hendrie's language and behaviour towards referee Mike Dean following his dismissal at the conclusion of the Championship Play-Off Final at Wembley Stadium on 25 May.

The one match suspension will be in addition to the three match ban he will serve as a result of the sending-off and will commence from the start of the 2009/10 Football League season.
