Parker Appeal?

Last updated : 24 October 2005 By Footy Mad - Editor

Styles brandished the yellow card at Parker after Sunderland winger Liam Lawrence went down after being chased by the midfielder and right back Stephen Carr as United beat Sunderland in the derby match at St James' Park.

And as a result the England international is now just one more booking away from his second United ban after his one match suspension earlier in the season for his red card against West Ham.

Parker: "I never touched the Sunderland player and it was a case of mistaken identity. I tried to tell the referee this but he wasn't really interested. Now I will discuss the situation with the manager and decide whether to appeal because before the match I already had three yellow cards."
