Gate boss sweating after dismissal
Published: 00:00, 12 September 2003
MARGATE manager Chris Kinnear is waiting to hear whether any further action will be taken over his sending off in the 2-1 defeat against Chester at Crabble on Saturday.
Kinnear was sent to the dugout shortly after the visitors got their second goal and spent the rest of the game watching from the stand.
He said: "I can't believe that the referee sent me off. I didn't swear at him, I just questioned a decision he made.
"I thought you got three warnings before you were sent off but he hadn't spoken to me once. I don't know if I will hear anymore about it. I might get a letter sent to me."
The game resulted in Gate's fourth home defeat in four matches. Sam Sodje put Margate in front in the 39th minute when he headed home an Adrian Clarke corner.
Five minutes later City were level when Darryn Stamp headed past Gate keeper Phil Smith. Jon Brady grabbed the winner for the visitors in the second half.
