A striker who saw red against Gillingham last month has been handed an additional two-match ban.
Sutton forward Harry Smith was dismissed after just 26 minutes of their 1-0 loss at Priestifeld in League 2 over the festive period for a reckless challenge on Gillingham defender Max Ehmer.
The 28-year-old former Millwall, Leyton Orient and Northampton frontman was subsequently charged by the Football Association with a breach of rule E3.1.
Smith has admitted that “following his dismissal, his language towards a match official was improper and/or abuse and or/insulting.”
As a result, Smith has been given a two-match ban along with a fine of £750.
Gillingham won the game 1-0 thanks to a second-half goal from Scott Malone.
