SOUTHEND United boss Kevin Maher looks set to be missing from the touchline when Dagenham & Redbridge visit Roots Hall on Saturday.

Maher was shown his third yellow card of the season during Tuesday night’s 1-1 draw with Wealdstone at Roots Hall.

But the Blues head coach is still waiting for official clarification of his one match ban.

“I’m waiting for confirmation and I’m not sure at the moment,” said Maher.

“We will wait and see.

“I’m not sure where I’ll watch it but I’m sure I’ll be close enough to whistle!

“I’m not 100 per cent sure yet but I think I might be banned.”

Maher’s suspension has also been listed on the FA website.
