McLeod saw red for violent conduct but, it is his 3rd red card of the season. FA rules indicate he will serve a five game ban, three for the incident and two additional for the previous red cards. This will see him miss the following games:
H Barnet
A Rochdale
A Bury
H Macclesfield
A Bristol Rovers.
McLeod has been in sensational form for MK and has scored 9 goals in 11 games. This made him look a certainty to attract higher league interest during the transfer window, but now this now must look unlikely.
5 game ban.
3 for the incident today and 2 for the previous red cards.
If the ban is indeed five games, MK will lose their main goalscoring threat. This must be advantage promotion opposition?
