Keane appeal rejected
Tottenham striker Robbie Keane's appeal for his sending off against Birmingham at the weekend has been rejected. The 27-year-old will now serve a three match ban after his lunge at Birmingham midfielder Fabrice Muamba.
Tottenham had argued the decision was harsh and that referee Phil Dowd had consulted with the fourth official before producing the red card.
Tottenham lost the game 3-2 against Birmingham thanks to a last minute goal from another ex-Arsenal midfielder, Sebastian Larsson.
There will be some good news for Tottenham though, as Ledley King looks ever closer to a return from injury after he appeared in a Tottenham reserve match.
