MOWATT TO SERVE SUSPENSION

Midfielder to miss next three matches after red card at Birmingham...

Alex Mowatt will serve a three-match suspension after an appeal against his sending-off against Birmingham City on Tuesday night was deemed unsuccessful.

Mowatt, a second-half substitute during the 2-1 victory at St Andrew's, was shown a straight red card in the closing seconds of stoppage time following a challenge on Birmingham's Ryan Shotton.

The 21-year-old will now be absent for United's forthcoming Sky Bet Championship fixtures with Reading, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Hull City.
