Bans stand for United duo
Wayne Rooney and Paul Scholes will miss three matches after an
independent disciplinary commission rejected United's appeal
against their suspensions.
The pair's punishments were first issued by the FA last Wednesday,
9 August. Rooney was reported for violent conduct and Scholes for
foul play following their dismissals against FC Porto in the LG
Amsterdam Tournament on Friday 4 August.
The suspensions start on 23 August, making the players unavailable
for Charlton away that day, Watford away on 26 August and Tottenham
at home on 9 September.
The Club has no comment to make on the outcome of the appeal.
