28 March 2011 20:00
Leyton Orient have appealed against the red card shown to Matthew Spring during Saturday's 5-1 defeat by Yeovil. The midfielder is facing a three-match ban after he was sent off in the 14th minute for a foul on Town's Andrew Welsh. Os boss Russell Slade told the club's official website: "Having studied the challenge over the weekend we don't believe it was a red-card offence. "We have launched an appeal to the FA and we hope the decision will be overturned."
