Richie Towell will serve three-game ban after Shamrock Rovers’ appeal against red card is rejected.
Shamrock Rovers midfielder Richie Towell will serve a three-match ban as a result of his red card in Friday night's Premier Division encounter with Cork City.
Towell was issued a straight red card in the game that saw Stephen Bradley's side lose 1-0 at Turner's Cross. While the Dublin club appealed the nature of the sending off, it proved unsuccessful.
A FAI statement read:
"An independent Appeal Committee of the FAI has rejected Shamrock Rovers FC's appeal for wrongful dismissal following Richie Towell’s red card for violent conduct in Shamrock Rovers FC’s SSE Airtricity Men’s Premier Division fixture versus Cork City FC on 26 May 2023.
"In accordance with the FAI Disciplinary Regulations, Richie Towell will serve a three-match suspension."
