Town have confirmed that thet have launched an appeal against the red card Damien Delaney received in Saturday's victory over Scunthorpe. The Irishman faces a three-match ban for a dismissal for serious foul play if referee Pat Miller’s decision is upheld.
Boss Roy Keane told the club site: "We've had a look at the DVD and the club are now in the process of appealing."
The FA’s Disciplinary Committee will hear the appeal at 1pm on Tuesday. If Town are successful, the central defender will be available for the game against Watford, if not, then Delaney faces a three-match ban and the possibility of a fourth if the FA decide that the appeal is frivolous, as was the case with Jon Stead’s sending off at Crystal Palace earlier in the season.
Scunthorpe have already announced that they will be appealing Cliff Byrne's red card earlier in Saturday's game.
