Luton boss Mike Newell has denied a Football Association charge of improper conduct following his comments made towards female official Amy Raynor.
Newell has requested a personal hearing where he will defend his charges.
Newell said after the match with QPR in November that the appointment of women referees and assistants was "tokenism for the politically-correct idiots".
He was severely reprimanded by the Luton Town board and made a public apology to Raynor.
Newell was incensed that Rayner and referee Andy D'Urso failed to award his side a spot-kick when QPR defender Marcus Bignot tangled with Carlos Edwards in the penalty box in the clash on 10 November.
He said after the game: "It is bad enough with the incapable referees and linesmen we have but if you start bringing in women, you have big problems.
"Amy Raynor should not be here. I know that sounds sexist but I am sexist"
"This is Championship football. This is not park football, so what are women doing here? It is tokenism, for the politically-correct idiots.
"She should not be here. I know that sounds sexist but I am sexist, so I am not going to be anything other than that."
Newell has until 21 December to respond. If found guilty, he faces a fine or possible touchline ban.
Luton disassociated themselves with Newell's comments and the former Everton player was prompted into assuring the board that there will be no repeat.
