Holloway was given the ban following his breach of an FA misconduct rule during the Seasiders' recent FA Cup tie against Ipswich, he was also fined £2,400 and warned as to his future conduct.

The 2-1 defeat against the Tractor Boys saw both Ian Evatt and Rob Edwards sent off, and Holloway himself was sent to the stands for remonstrating with the fourth official.

The ban means the Pools boss will oversee the games against Watford on Saturday and Coventry a week on Saturday from the stands.
