Parkinson in dugout for Wrexham's crunch game against Yeovil
Boss Phil Parkinson will be on the touchline for Wrexham's crunch National League game against Yeovil tonight — despite his red card at Barnet.
Parkinson was dismissed for his post-match protestations over Callum McFadzean being sent off after catching goalkeeper Laurie Walker with his trailing right leg during last Saturday's goalless draw.
There is no automatic touchline ban for a manager or coach receiving a red card in the National League and Parkinson's case is set to be reviewed by the Football Association of Wales, under whose disciplinary control Wrexham fall under.
A club spokesperson said: "Phil Parkinson's red card is not an automatic ban so he will definitely be on the touchline for the Yeovil game.
"No date has been set for a review by the FAW yet."
Wrexham have lodged an appeal against McFadzean's red card, their first of the season, and a decision on that is expected this morning.
The Red Dragons are a point above Notts County with a game in hand after their title rivals beat Woking 3-0.
Wrexham need six points from their final three games to be crowned fifth-tier champions and return to the Football League after a 15-year absence.
The visit of Yeovil is followed by another home game against Boreham Wood on Saturday before a trip to Torquay on the final day of the season on April 29.
Speaking after the Barnet draw, 55-year-old Parkinson said: "It's another point towards where we need to be. We've set ourselves up great."
