Leon Barnett Suspended for Two More Matches
Norwich City central defender, Leon Barnett was sent of, recently, in the match againts Portsmouth after it was deemed that he deliberately brought down David Nugent.
In frustration, Barnet threw the ball at referee, Simon Hooper, asBarnett was shown the red card.
Immediately after the game Barnett apologised to Hooper and manager Paul Lambert for his rash action.
This did nothing to prevent a report for misconduct being made to the FA, for which Barnet was given a personal hearing today at the FA.
In addition to the one match suspension that Barnett received for the sending off, a Regulatory Commission today decided to prolong Barnett's suspension by two matches, to be served with immediate effect.
This mean that the new January signing will sit out the Boxing Day fixture away to Crystal Palace, and the home fixture against Sheffield United on December 28th.

Swansea City : The Luke saga drags on and on : What’s next today ? As the many thousands of views dictate on this website we continue to report matters of interest as we did yesterday morning on Luke Williams. A fairly concise and pertinent piece by our site owner. I suppose what every writer relies upon is for the reader to actually understand what is being said.
Swansea City : Does Luke know what he is doing to our club ?There has been much comment and it has to be said bar a few abusive idiots on social media a lot of frustration on those platforms regards Harry Darling and Luke Williams. Much of this brought about by the reluctance of Luke Williams to just clarify his position at Swansea City.
Honestly Luke do you really believe your PR ! Swans crash at Pompey If Swansea City could be any more unimaginative and weak in an away fixture this season it will signal that Luke Williams really hasn’t got the credentials to lead this Swansea team to anything other than complete mediocrity. The very fact he is being linked with West Bromwich Albion (it isn’t a rumour Luke, as you well know) tells us he has already lost heart in this Swansea side, and his reluctance to speak truthfully about it is an insult to Swansea fans.
Pompey v Swans : All your team news & Harry Darling speculation this morning Happy New Year to each and every one of you who have religiously supported the Indy this past year, thank you from all of us here. Swansea City visit Portsmouth today for a 3pm kick off at Fratton Park. Early news points towards Franco not being available with a bad dental injury and Jay Fulton more than likely starting the game.
Swansea City : Is Luke thinking this out ? ‘ Call my agent’ West Brom Swansea City head coach, Luke Williams is either not thinking through his responses to the latest news of West Bromwich Albion being linked to his services, or he’s asking them to come and get him. In any event his remarks post match after a 2-1 win against Luton Town are extremely questionable.
