Kenny McLean, an important player for them.

Obviously that's why he's not in the expected team in my match thread.

Took a guess but Amankwah Forson could come in for him.

Johannes Hoff Thorup will weigh up whether Norwich City stand any chance of appealing Kenny McLean's red card that marred a stirring 3-3 Championship comeback against Middlesbrough on Sunday.

Norwich City elect against Kenny McLean red card appeal -

After concluding that process, City have elected against forming an appeal to the FA about referee James Bell's decision with the deadline of 1pm on Monday having passed.

McLean will now serve a three-game ban, starting against Cardiff on Saturday. It will sideline him for upcoming matches away to Sheffield Wednesday and Bristol City at home prior to the November international break.

Kenny McLean has been charged by the FA following his sending off in Norwich City's 3-3 draw against Middlesbrough on Sunday.

The FA allege that the Scottish international 'acted in an improper manner and/or used abusive and/or insulting words towards a match official around the 87th minute after being sent off.'

McLean have been given a deadline of Friday to respond, but sanctions could include a further suspension from playing and/or a fine.

Southampton defender Jack Stephens was given a two-game and £50,000 fine sanction for a similar offence last month after being sent off in their 3-0 defeat to Manchester United last month on top of his three-game suspension for the original red card offence.

In that case, the FA ruled that: 'that the sporting sanction imposed should be not less than 2 matches to properly reflect the presence of two separate breaches of FA Rule E3.1 in respect of two separate individuals.'
