RANGERS manager Mark Warburton could reportedly be handed a touchline ban from the SFA for an outburst following his side's defeat to Aberdeen on Sunday.

The Gers boss was furious at referee John Beaton for awarding a late free-kick to the Dons, which was spectacularly converted by substitute James Maddison to seal a 2-1 win for the Pittodrie side.

Beaton has included details of Warburton's confrontation with him after the final whistle in his match report, according to the Daily Record.

The Englishman is believed to have accused the officials of making a mistake by penalising James Tavernier's tackle, which resulted in the winning goal.

He could now face time on the sidelines if the SFA choose to hand the Light Blues boss a touchline ban. 

The defeat left Rangers in seventh place after seven games, with only two wins to their name since returning to the top-flight.
