Wise charged, Dunne appeal fails

Wise

Millwall boss Dennis Wise has been charged by the Football Association with improper conduct following he's sending off from the touch line on Tuesday evening.

Wise received his marching orders after a water bottle he threw to the ground in frustration bounced up and hit the referee's assistant. The incident was one of many on a packed evening for official Mike Jones, who handed out three futher cards following a last minute brawl that is expected to be investigated by the Football Association of Wales.

Wise has already requested a personal hearing and will meet with the F.A. next month.

Alan Dunne

Midfielder Alan Dunne, meanwhile, has been unsuccessful in his appeal to overturn the red card he picked up in the same game. The player now faces a four match ban which will keep him out of action until Sunday 20th March.

Dunne will also now face an additional FA misconduct charge for breach of FA Rule E3 which could rule him out for an additional period. The charge in question relates to Dunne's alleged failure to leave the field of play promptly following his dismissal at Ninian Park.
