Fulham's Mitrovic hit with three-match ban for early elbow against Leeds

The Championship’s joint-leading scorer was fortunate to escape a red before Fulham lost 3-0 at Elland Road.

AFTER A HEAVY loss to Leeds, promotion-chasing Fulham took another blow today as striker Aleksandar Mitrovic accepted a three-match ban for an elbow on Ben White.

The Serbian was fortunate not to be issued a red card as he made the impact just three minutes into Saturday’s fixture at Elland Road. But he has accepted a charge of violent conduct and so Fulham will miss the Championship’s joint-leading scorer for forthcoming matches against QPR, Birmingham City and Nottingham Forest.

Fulham are sitting relatively safely in the play-off places, fifth, seven points from either the automatic promotion places or seventh-place Preston North End.

    And yet Alan/Marcus, while you sat in your bedroom writing that drivel in mammy’s house,that, by the way she’s waiting to convert into a guest room, Pogba was probably sitting in the toilet of his personal jet on the way to France and wiping his arse with £50 notes…not knowing who you or I are and quite content that your opinion of him will just wither away into empty space.

    @An Observer2: wiping his arse with 50s? Sure that’s nothing special in premier league circles, even wba reject Liam Ridgewell was doing that a few years back

    They don’t make players like this man anymore(Frankie). That’s what’s wrong with today’s game. Too many egos
