Tommy Black

TOMMY BLACK has been hit with a four-match suspension after his sending off against Brescia.

It came just seven days after his red card in the South London derby clash against Millwall.

The midfielder will not be available for the West Brom game on Saturday (20th), the second round of the Carling Cup against Doncaster on Tuesday night (23th), and the league matches against Norwich and West Ham.

Steve Kember was naturally disappointed with the decision. He said: "It’s disappointing because he's only just returned from the ban he got for his red at Millwall. Now he's out for a further four."
