Barnet manager Paul Fairclough has fined and banned Kenny Gillet after the left-back's red card for violent conduct in the Carling Cup.

The Bees lost 4-0 to Brighton in Tuesday's first round tie after Gillet - who was also booked in the first league game of the season - was sent off.

He will now miss the League Two games against Rochdale, Chester and Brentford.

Fairclough decided to take action against the 22-year-old as the Bees have a suspended £5,000 fine from the FA hanging over them after picking up ten red cards last season.

"Kenny has really let us down," he admitted after revealing he is also looking to land some cover on loan.

"He retaliated after being antagonised when he got kicked, but his impetuosity is coupled with a desire to win."

Fairclough is also currently running the rule over teenage Charlton Athletic defender Aswad Thomas.
