Leyton Orient have opted not to appeal against the red card shown to midfielder JJ Melligan at Norwich on Tuesday night.

The 27-year-old was sent off for a challenge on Canaries midfielder Adam Drury in the second half of the 4-0 defeat.

But the club have decided not to contest the decision and Melligan will serve a three-match ban, starting with Saturday's trip to Wycombe.
