The Premier League has announced it will launch a new campaign designed to improve the behaviour of both players and managers towards match officials next season.
The initiative was approved unanimously by a meeting of club chairmen on Thursday, and Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore later confirmed that the crackdown will attempt to address recent "unacceptable" behaviour that referees have been subjected to.
The most high-profile incident relating to match officials this season saw Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson banned for five matches after criticising Martin Atkinson following a defeat to Chelsea at the start of March. Scudamore hopes to avoid similar incidents in future.
