Suspended: Richard Cockerill

Leicester Head Coach Richard Cockerill has received a four-week ban after admitting two offences of match official abuse.

Cockerill, who steered Leicester to the Guinness Premiership title last season, was punished by a three-man Rugby Football Union disciplinary panel.

The charges arose from Tigers' LV= Cup clash against Newport Gwent Dragons at Welford Road earlier this month.

Former England hooker Cockerill is suspended from any involvement with the Leicester team or match officials on game days until December 23, and from coaching mini, midi and youth rugby on Sundays, also until that date.

He was also fined £2,000.

Team of November

Some shone, many didn't. It was not a month of entertaining rugby and the debate over law changes rages on unchecked.
