Doncaster Rovers defender Tom Anderson has been given an additional three-match suspension for misconduct by the Football Association, taking his total ban to six games.

The 31-year-old was sent off for violent conduct in the 85th minute of Rovers' 3-0 League Two defeat by Chesterfield last month.

Anderson admitted that, following his red card he subsequently used threatening and abusive language to a match official and has also been fined ÂŁ3,000.

He has already served two matches of his initial three-game suspension for the red card but will now miss six games in total.

Anderson will be unavailable until Doncaster's Bristol Street Motors Trophy tie with Barnsley on 29 October.
