Scholes To Miss 2 Games

Paul Scholes will miss United’s next two domestic matches after picking up his 10th booking of the season against Arsenal on Saturday.



The 36-year-old, who came on as a late substitute in the FA Cup quarter-final, incurred the wrath of referee Chris Foy when he went in strongly on Marouane Chamakh.

The tackle left the Moroccan on the ground and Foy reaching for his pocket, much to Scholes' chagrin.


Under the FA’s disciplinary regulations, any player who picks up 10 yellow cards before the second Sunday of April is subject to an automatic two-game ban and a £15 fine.

That means Scholes will miss the Reds’ clashes with Bolton Wanderers (Saturday 19 March) and West Ham United (Saturday 2 April).
