Ian Holloway has a reputation as one of the more engaging Premier League managers
Holloway has also been fined £9,500 for confronting referee Mike Dean following Blackpool's 2-1 loss at home to Blackburn Rovers on September 25.
The Blackpool boss was angry after seeing his side concede an injury-time goal. Holloway felt there was a suspicion of offside when Brett Emerton scored and also felt Gary Taylor-Fletcher was fouled in the build-up.
"At a Regulatory Commission hearing today [Monday], Blackpool manager Ian Holloway was given a one match touchline ban and fined £9,500," read an FA statement.
"Holloway admitted a charge of improper conduct relating to his language and behaviour towards match officials at the conclusion of Blackpool's match against Blackburn Rovers on 25 September. The touchline ban will be served with immediate effect."
Holloway will now be absent from the touchline for Saturday's home game against Manchester City.
