Albion marksman Leon Knight today revealed he is fully focused on the biggest match of his career, in spite of an FA disciplinary rap hanging over him.

A three-man hearing yesterday deferred a verdict on a charge of violent behaviour against Knight until after Sunday's final of the play-offs against Bristol City at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff.

Knight must now wait until next week to discover what, if any, punishment he will receive following the flare-up with opponent Lewis McMahon towards the end of the 2-1 defeat against his old club Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough in March.

"I haven't really been thinking about it," said the 26-goal striker. "I am just concentrating on Sunday's game and I have got on with training as usual."

Manager Mark McGhee said: "I think they just felt that, rather than make the decision now, they will wait until after Sunday and let Leon get the game out of the way, which I think is fair."

Knight was represented at yesterday's hearing at the FA's London headquarters at Soho Square by Dean White, Albion's reserve team coach.

White, also charged for his part in the incident, was cleared but warned as to his future conduct and ordered to pay costs.

"I was a bit miffed to be charged in the first place," White said. "I couldn't imagine why I was. The only reason I spoke to the referee at the end of the game was because he spoke to me first.

"There was no heated exchange between us. That only happened when a steward became involved."

Sky TV's studio guest for Sunday's big game is McGhee's close friend Gordon Strachan. The former Southampton chief has been heavily supported with bookmakers to become Liverpool's new manager.
