FA investigating Beckford clash

 

 

 

The Football Association has confirmed that it is investigating Jermaine
Beckford's altercation with Millwall goalkeeper David Forde - having
earlier appeared to rule out further disciplinary action against the
Leeds United striker.

Beckford was seen elbowing Forde in the face during the second half of
last night's League One match between Leeds and Millwall at Elland Road.

 

The forward, who scored twice in United's 2-0 win, was shown a yellow
card for the offence by referee Alan Wiley, and the Football Association
initially announced that Wiley's original decision would stand,
apparently ruling out further repercussions.

 

But a spokesman for the governing body has subsequently confirmed to the
YEP that the FA is now reviewing Beckford's actions after receiving
additional information in Wiley's match report. realizing that this was
a Leeds United player we were talking about.
