Brighton's Ashley Barnes will be banned for seven games after the Football Association gave him an additional three-match suspension for his sending off in Saturday's defeat at Bolton.
Barnes was sent off for violent conduct after he appeared to trip the referee.
The 23-year-old forward was found guilty of behaviour which "constituted an offence whereby the standard punishment...was clearly insufficient".
He was serving a four-game ban before the FA's additional punishment.
Barnes denied the FA charge, but a regulatory commission heard the case on Friday morning and found him guilty.
His original four-match ban had included an extra game for his second dismissal of the season.
The former Plymouth player missed the 2-1 defeat at Barnsley on Tuesday and will now only be available for Brighton's last three games of the Championship season.
Following injuries to Craig Mackail-Smith and Will Hoskins, Leonardo Ulloa is now Brighton's only recognised first-team striker.
Ashley Barnes ban extended!!

It does seem that with recent results of those around us and instances such as this, things are going our way.
Up to King Billy's boys to do their bit.

Things really are going our way lately. Brighton, cardiff, and fester all hitting bumps in the road. Even looking at ourselves, everyone is hitting form and the only injury concern we have is dex, and he may still be clear for tomorrow.
I'd go far enough to say hull is the only team im not sure forest can beat in our run in. They seem a serious bogey team as well. Lost 5 times in a row against them and almost 40 years since we beat them at their place.
Brighton on the other hand, cant wait

Monkey - completely agree with you about Hull.
If we do get beat, it will be interesting to see how the boys react.

It is funny though... he deliberately trips up the ref....
he must of got the added games for saying "she fell over, she fell over" and pointing

The extra impetus against Hull is that 6th place is in our hands at the moment,
My worry with Brighton is the loan market. Poyet was so happy for what was going on with "Udinese" that there is a chance he might try the same.
