Mark Robins has called on the FA to look at a late incident that left Coventry City’s Jamie Allen with a fractured cheekbone in the 4-1 FA Cup fourth round replay against Sheffield Wednesday.

“He’s got a depressed fracture so I am hoping he is not going to have to have surgery. But he has a depressed fracture and he may need surgery. We’ll see.”
