Pair Miss Four Games - Ipswich Town News

Town bad boys Pablo Couñago and Hermann Hreidarsson both face missing four games after picking up a red and a yellow card respectively against Sheffield United on Saturday.

Couñago's sending off for violent conduct was his second of the season and he will therefore receive a four match ban. That means he will miss the matches against Grimsby (H), Norwich (A), Wolves (A) and Stoke City (H) before he is finally available to Joe Royle for the March 15th game at Sheffield Wednesday. If the Crystal Palace match is rearranged for a date during that time then he would miss that rather than the Stoke game.

Icelander Hreidarsson picked up his fifth domestic booking of the season on Saturday leading to an automatic one match ban in addition to the three he picked up for his red card at Bradford. He now misses the games against Wolves (H), Grimsby (H), Norwich (A) and Wolves (A), again unless the Crystal Palace game is schedule during that time.
