Raith Rovers boss considers touchline ban appeal

John McGlynn is facing a touchline ban after the Raith Rovers manager was sent to the stand during a reserve fixture against East Fife last Thursday.

The Stark’s Park gaffer was given his marching orders by referee Andrew Dallas for disputing a penalty decision against his side.

McGlynn is now awaiting the whistler’s report before deciding if he will launch an appeal.

“You are automatically given a two-match ban in these instances but it does not start until a fortnight after the incident occurred,” he said.

“That would mean I would have to sit in the stands for the Ross County game on the 23rd of this month and the Morton fixture a week later.

“However, I am waiting to see the referee’s report before deciding whether or not to appeal.”
