Newcastle have accepted a Football Association charge of failing to control their players during Sunday's eventful derby defeat at Sunderland.
However, the Magpies have asked for their case to be re-assessed after submitting mitigation over the incident, which surrounded captain Fabricio Coloccini's dismissal by referee Robert Madley in first-half injury time after he had a penalty awarded against him.
A club statement said: "Newcastle United have admitted a charge of failing to control their players in last weekend's Tyne-Wear derby defeat at Sunderland."
