Charman appeal fails

Charman appeal fails

Four match ban stands

We have today failed in our appeal to have Luke Charman's sending off at Spennymoor on Boxing Day overturned.

We contended that the referee had made a clear and obvious error in sending Luke off for violent conduct, specifically use of the elbow, but the FA commission turned down our appeal.

Luke will now miss four matches -- against Farsley, Kidderminster, Telford and Kettering.
