Swindon Town captain Ollie Clarke will serve a one-match ban after the reasons for his red card at Accrington Stanley were confirmed by the match officials.
Referee Alan Young dismissed Clarke in the 37th minute of the 4-0 defeat at the Wham Stadium, following a collision with Alex Henderson on the edge of the Town box.
Reports on Saturday indicated Young had reached for the red for violent conduct, as there was a suggestion Clarke had led with an elbow.
However the official was not willing, either at the time of the or in the referee's room after the match, to say which infringement had resulted in the defender getting his marching orders.
