MK Dons player Zak Jules has been given a violent conduct three-match ban after an off the ball incident caught on camera.
After an incident that occurred in the 19th minute of their 1-0 League One loss at Port Vale, the 26-year-old defender was suspended for three matches.
Jules wasn’t penalised by match officials. However, it was seen on video and he was later charged with a Football Association offence.

He will be absent from Saturday’s match against Cambridge United as well as fixtures against Accrington, Morecambe and Morecambe.
These three games are vital and involve the teams currently ranked 20th through 23rd on the table.
The Dons are currently 22nd and four points away from safety. They have 11 games to avoid relegation.
After hamstring surgery in December, Dean Lewington, Dons skipper, has now resumed light training.
Zak Jules will be suspended for MK Dons’ next three matches following an incident in the 19th minute of last weekend’s Sky Bet League One fixture with Port Vale.
An FA spokesperson said: “The defender’s behaviour was not seen by the match officials at the time, but it was caught on camera, and he subsequently accepted the automatic penalty for violent conduct.”
Jules will miss this Saturday’s clash with Cambridge United at Stadium MK and will also be unavailable for the encounters with Accrington Stanley and Morecambe.
Fans reacted as the MK Dons player is given a three-match ban after an off the ball incident caught on camera…
@KieronDay03: Lino was awful btw, happened right in front of him and he didn’t see it, useless
@PaulMur44003603: The club can have no complaints, they and the players are to blame for this current indiscipline including a record number of penalties conceded. I cannot remember this happening in previous seasons. Hopefully, heavy fines will be placed on the players by the club.
@idontcareicba: crying we have 1 CB
@MichaelFerns12: How the ref missed that incident I have no idea, he was looking straight at them.
@Calstagram123: No surprises there… Really upsetting to see the team committing these silly fouls. From Leko to Jules, it doesn’t set us up brilliantly for the rest of the season.
@allan_law7: Incredible. We now have 1CB… League two gonna be so fun next year….
@nodgers: What an absolute pumper 👊💦
@TaylorArmitage: don’t worry i’ll bring my boots down
@mikebromham: Are there any defenders left ?!
@CGC_Pvfc2: Good the dirty prick
@HarryMears23: Time to get this poor excuse of a professional footballer out of the club.
@TheLegionDon1: I hope there’s fines heading their way tbh. Jules and Leko have left us in a right mess with their lack of discipline. Fucked their teammates over
@GregHandscombe: Knowing we have only 1 CB fit in the club at the moment, just makes the timing of ( It wasn’t me) Sweeting look even more stupid
@StanleyUTF: It’s a good thing we have more than 2 fit centre ba-…oh wait. Fucking idiot. These lot deserve to go down.
@alfiemkd: We all knew it was coming. Him and Leko are both idiots.
@Kzydzn: why are we still here just to suffer
@OllieM__: absolute ✊🏻✊🏻
@meg_felstead: Not exactly surprising 😂 #pvfc
@harriesdon87: At this point I’m really feeling the players don’t care…… calm heads needed not 🤡 heads
@PicardyBreezer: About time and all. Vicious prick.
@Ethan_MK728: I guess I’ll get my boots ready
@hertsdon1: 🤣🤣🤣 Jesus wept
@StanleyUTF: This season has been so much worse then the last season we went down btw. And we don’t the Gilby, Walsh, Aneke or Agard types to get us back up straight away. League 2 is gonna be rough.
@Murray_MK: 1 available CB and that CB is incompetent. Fantastic
@Lauren_Sadlerx: Leko and Jules should both receive heavy fines from the club, donated to fans groups eg MKDSA/Donsaction to go towards any ideas. Absolute clowns the pair of them
@ollielad24: Oh shock fuckin horror we never saw that coming did we 😂😡 1 fit CB left and we all know who that is
@VineyMusic: Tucker is our only fit centre back 😂
@RizzyMK04: Absolute knob, well let’s hope Bradley Johnson is ready for the next 3 BIG games
@DippyDon_95: Let’s hope Stewart or Lewie are fit then or we have my 5th choice centre back as the only one that’s fit and available
@alex_makel: Deserved. Absolute clown.
Welcome to the pinch club, Zak! 😘 https://t.co/K6PwD1QFQV pic.twitter.com/IVoODEQTxV
