James Gibbons has been booked just twice in 29 appearances for Bristol Rovers this season

Bristol Rovers defender James Gibbons has been given a two-match suspension by the Football Association for improper conduct during his team's 2-0 defeat by MK Dons.

Gibbons was charged for unspecified incidents during the 23rd and 53rd minutes of the game on 4 February.

The 24-year-old challenged the decision but a board dismissed his appeal.

He has also been fined £2,000 and will miss the club's League One matches at home to Wycombe and Portsmouth.
