The FA can confirm that Robbie Savage has admitted the charge of violent conduct brought against him earlier today and has accepted the 3-match suspension which applies to this charge.

His suspension will therefore commence forthwith.


Note - FA Rule E3 is new for this season. It states that:

"A participant shall at all times act in the best interests of the game and shall not act in any manner which is improper or brings the game into disrepute or use any one, or a combination of, violent conduct, serious foul play, threatening, abusive, indecent or insulting words or behaviour."
