Tottenham appeal Keane red

03 December 2007 - 18:54

Tottenham are to appeal Robbie Keane's red card that was given in the 3-2 defeat to Birmingham at the weekend. Phil Dowd had given him his marching orders after a lunge at Fabrice Muamba.

  • Chelsea make Malo Gusto transfer decision
  • Arsenal favourites to sign 26yo Newcastle star?
  • A statement on the club's website read: "The Club can confirm it will be appealing the red card received by Robbie Keane for serious foul play."



    Ramos had said of the incident afterward: "The sending-off was harsh. In this type of incident the referee would normally show a yellow card, it certainly wasn't red. The referee was very close by. It was very unfair.



    "I don't know what happened but the closest person to the incident was the referee. Anybody else was a lot further away."
