Bristol City forward Harry Cornick has been banned for three matches after admitting a charge of violent conduct for his part in a brawl when the Robins faced Millwall this month.<\/p>\n

Both clubs, multiple players and a member of Millwall coaching staff have been charged by the FA<\/a> over the incident.<\/p>\n

Millwall won the match at Ashton Gate 1-0<\/a>, courtesy of Mihailo Ivanovic’s winner, but Zak Vyner were denied a late equaliser for the hosts by the assistant referee’s flag, which was raised for offside.<\/p>\n

Lions boss Alex Neil and Robins head coach Gerhard Struber appeared not to shake hands at full-time, with Bristol City skipper Jason Knight appearing to push Neil twice in the chest in an altercation which soon erupted into a larger melee.<\/p>\n

Cornick, who has made just one appearance for City this season, was an unused substitute in the game. <\/p>\n

Robins players Joe Williams and Ross McCrorie, Millwall goalkeeper Joel Coleman and Lions assistant head coach Dave Livermore have also been charged.<\/p>\n

Of the players charged, only McCrorie actually featured in the game, having come off the bench for Mark Sykes in the 64th minute.<\/p>\n

“Bristol City FC’s Harry Cornick has been suspended following their EFL Championship fixture against Millwall FC on Saturday 6 December,” an FA spokesperson said, external<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“His behaviour after the final whistle wasn’t seen by the match of the officials but it was caught on video and the FA alleged this constitutes violent conduct.<\/p>\n

“The player subsequently admitted the charge and accepted the standard three-match suspension.”<\/p>\n

Both clubs and remaining players\/staff charged have until Monday, 5 January to respond to the charges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bristol City forward Harry Cornick has been banned for three matches after admitting a charge of violent conduct…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":367326,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[64,63,596,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-367325","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-football","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-football","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/367325","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=367325"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/367325\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/367326"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=367325"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=367325"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=367325"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
