ALBION boss Gus Poyet insists he is not bothered about possibly facing a touchline ban and will not alter his passionate antics.
The Uruguayan was sent off in the first half against Doncaster by referee Eddie Ilderton after booting water bottles in protest at a booking for Kazenga LuaLua for diving in the Doncaster box.
Ilderton had already upset Poyet by failing to punish Tommy Spurr for a challenge on LuaLua. The Doncaster fullback had been cautioned for a similar tackle on the Albion winger minutes earlier.
Poyet told The Argus: "We'll see what happens now. I'm not bothered. Sometimes you show your emotion because of how much you care.
"It depends what the referee says. I know what I said. I'm going to wait for his report and let's analyse the decisions.
"You cannot give a foul and yellow card and two minutes later the same foul and same players and you don't give a foul because you know it's another yellow.
"They need to analyse what they did, because it's too easy to fill up a piece of paper and put that the manager was complaining too much and just go home and relax."
Poyet, sent-off previously at Leyton Orient and in last month's friendly against Paris Saint-Germain in Portugal, watched the rest of the first half two rows further back with other members of the Albion staff.
He was told at half-time that was not allowed and sat in the press box in the second half.
"That's me I'm not going to change," he said. "If I change and keep quiet I'll go home and play golf. You like me or hate me but that's me."
