Club confirms Mullins red card appeal

West Ham United can confirm that we will be appealing to the FA on behalf of Hayden Mullins after the midfielder received a red card at last night's match against Liverpool.

The sending off results in a three-match ban which, if upheld, means the ever-present Hammer will miss the FA Cup final against Liverpool at the Millennium Stadium on May 13.

The decision by the FA will be made based upon a written appeal and review of video evidence and the outcome of the appeal will be communicated to the Club tomorrow afternoon.
