Can we appeal red cards to FAW?

[El Morto La Hoja!]

FAW has rescind Darren Purse's red card against QPR, for a tackle described as "high" and "late".

FAW previously rescinded a Darren Purse red card that had threatened to rule him of out last season's FA Cup final.

..... The FA NEVER rescind red cards

[Pete the Wolf]

How the hell were the FAW able to do that? Fair enough, Cardiff are a Welsh club, but that happened in a match under the authority of the English FA and as such, it should be appealed to them. The FAW should only be appealed to in the even of Cardiff playing in the Welsh club, surely.

EXACTLY!!

City look to Blades boss for help

Cardiff could turn to Sheffield United manager Kevin Blackwell as they bid to get Gabor Gyepes and Ross McCormack's red cards overturned.

Both saw red in the first half of Sunday's 3-0 Championship defeat to the Blades at Ninian Park, with Bluebirds boss Dave Jones confirming straight after the game the club would appeal both dismissals. But they may also use Blackwell's quotes as evidence to support their case.

The United manager admitted "both red cards looked harsh to me" before going on to say "I honestly don't know why he (McCormack) was dismissed".

Both Gyepes and McCormack are facing three-match bans, and with only nine games remaining for Cardiff this season the suspensions could seriously damage their promotion hopes.

No date has yet been set for the appeal which will be held before the Football Association of Wales, but it is sure to take place before the club return to action against local rivals Swansea on April 5.
