Dawson escapes further suspension

Dawson was dismissed in stoppage time at the Britannia Stadium

Tottenham's Michael Dawson has escaped a further ban over his angry reaction to his red card against Stoke, but has been warned over his future conduct.

Dawson reacted after he was sent off in injury-time during his side's defeat on 19 October and was subsequently charged with improper conduct.

The 24-year-old could have received a further two game ban in addition to his three-match suspension.

But he was cleared on Thursday by an independent regulatory commission.

Dawson had requested a personal hearing after he was charged by the Football Association.

He was sent off for a dangerous tackle on Stoke's Mamady Sidibe.
