"Blackpool chairman Karl Oyston has been banned from all football activity for six weeks and fined £40,000 for sending abusive texts to a fan.
The punishment from the Football Association has been suspended for four weeks and will not start until 8 July.
The 47-year-old was charged with misconduct by the FA in March after allegedly referring to Stephen Smith as a "retard" when the fan criticised him.
Oyston admitted five charges of breaking FA Rule E3 last Thursday.
The ban, which was handed out by an independent regulatory commission, will last until 18 August - 10 days after the start of the League One season.
Oyston was also ordered to attend a mandatory education session and warned about his future conduct."
Serves him right!
