Pep Guardiola could be seen removing his yellow ribbon in the dugout shortly before his Manchester City side took on Stoke on Monday night.
Last week the City boss was fined £20,000 and warned as to his future conduct after accepting a charge of 'wearing a political message' in relation to the ribbon, which Guardiola wears in support of imprisoned politicians in his native Catalonia.
Guardiola has argued wearing the symbol is not political but accepted it is in breach of the FA's rules.
And the 47-year-old Catalan left it until the last minute to remove the ribbon before Monday's 2-0 win, and was wearing it again in the post-match press conference.
