Disciplinary Status

As it seems Jimmy Kebe received a yellow card yesterday v Forest does it mean he is banned from the Scunthorpe game or does he get a warning (see link below from official site)? This will have been his 5th yellow card and the ban details state. "When a player receives five cautions he receives ...

Now we just need some improved performances by our defence and we are...

At the start and during the season Betfair have had a handicap league running where you could place bets. Each team was given a number of points headstart/handicap against the favourites to win the league (Chelsea) and was effectively Betfairs way of saying where they considered the final league pos...
