Disciplinary changes

Last updated : 29 July 2004 By Luke Thornhill
It means players will miss the very next game played by their team, bringing England into line with FIFA regulations.

An appeal can still be made for wrongful dismissal or mistaken indentity - but must be made by noon the next working day after the match.

All claims will be dealt with within four to five working days.

There is also a fresh procedure for on-field incidentes not spotted by match referees.

Charges will be issued within two working days of the match, coupled with a punishment offer which would match what the player would have received from the referee.
