USL Discipline Report: Week 7

May 11, 2016 - United Soccer League Championship (USL) News Release





TAMPA, Fla. - The following is the USL's discipline report for Week 7 of the 2016 season:

As was announced earlier this week, former Pittsburgh Riverhounds forward Romeo Parkes has been suspended by the USL for the remainder of the 2016 regular season and postseason and fined an undisclosed amount for his actions during the Riverhounds' Saturday home match against the New York Red Bulls II.

Also from that match, NYRB II's Karl Ouimette was sent off and was issued a three-game suspension, which he will begin serving Saturday against the Richmond Kickers and also on May 21 and 28.

Among other disciplinary notes, Bethlehem Steel FC's Walter Restrepo, Orange County Blues FC's Akwafei Ajeakwa, Saint Louis FC's Chad Bond and the Swope Park Rangers' Oumar Ballo all received one-game suspensions when they were sent off from their respective games last week and will serve their infractions this weekend.

Orlando City B goalkeeper Mark Ridgers was sent off during OCB's May 4 match against FC Cincinnati and has already served his one-game suspension this past Saturday against Bethlehem Steel FC.

Wilmington Hammerheads FC's Ashani Fairclough picked up his fifth yellow card of the season last Saturday against the Richmond Kickers, resulting in a one-game suspension and undisclosed fine. Fairclough served his suspension Tuesday night during the Hammerheads' 1-1 draw against the Charlotte Independence.

The Harrisburg City Islanders' Jose Barril and Orange County's Ivan Mirkovic currently sit on four yellow cards this season and are one caution away from being fined and suspended for yellow card accumulation.
