I apologise for being a bit dim, but what are the rules regarding these sending offs on Sunday.
Van djik was sent off and misses the league cup final and the replay, fair enough.
Paul Dixon gets sent off for Dundee United, but can play in the final, how is this?.
I remember the Cup replay against Rangers in 2011, when they had 3 players sent off, yet none of them served bans because the suspensions only counted for Cup matches, and as none of them were at Rangers the following year they effectively got off scot free.
There must be a logic somewhere in all this,
but I'm afraid I don't understand what it is.

I think a red card for violent conduct carries automatic 3 game ban fir the next 3 games.

I think if a player is sent off for violent conduct then he misses the next game. Otherwise I think the ban is for the next game in that competition only

Thanks, I didn't know what the rules were, you would think it would be more straightforward to just treat the competitions the same disciplinary wise.
