Bowyer, 42, admitted a charge of improper conduct and/or questioning the integrity of a match official in his side's 2-1 home defeat by Swansea.

"I'm surprised and disappointed with the ban. I didn't shout or swear in my discussion with the referee but it is what it is," he told the club website.

The Addicks, who are 10th in the Championship, host Derby on Saturday.
