Fulam boss Marco Silva says he and Aleksandar Mitrovic do recognise their responsibilities to grassroots football.

The pair have been charged after being sent off in the FA Cup defeat at Manchester United. Mitrovic faces a lengthy ban after pushing away ref Chris Kavanaugh.

Silva said at Thursday's presser: "We know our responsibilities - managers at this level, players at this level.

"We know we should be an example for everyone that's watching, on TV, in the stadium, supporting both teams as well.

"In some moments we should control our emotions better, but of course we know our responsibilities and what we should do or not do."

On facing a touchline ban he added: "It's always tough for any manager to be off the touchline, but I regret the situation and if I have to be in the stand I will do my job in the stand."
