Carver was the assistant manager to Bobby Robson at Newcastle United.
Following Robson's sacking in August 2004, Carver was appointed caretaker manager and guided the team to a 3-0 win against Blackburn Rovers.
Carver later dedicated the win to Bobby Robson. Despite the victory, Carver was not considered for the permanent job, that position going to Graeme Souness who opted to bring in his own backroom staff; Carver left the club in September 2004.
He already has a "misconduct from the Football Association".
Carver and Wigan coach Graham Barrow were charged with misconduct by the Football Association last March.
The FA's action came in relation to an incident at half-time during a Premier League match at the DW Stadium.
Carver was incensed with Wigan forward Callum McManaman following his challenge on Massadio Haidara as the players left the field and Barrow also became embroiled in the fracas.
Both men were sent to the stands for the second half of the match, which Wigan went on to win 2-1 courtesy of Arouna Kone's last-minute goal.
Haidara was carried off with a knee injury.
The fall-out from the incident has led to a war of words between the two clubs, although the FA ruled a week later that McManaman would face no retrospective action.
