Walsall will not appeal the double dismissal against Brighton, leaving Rhys Weston and Netan Sansara to start three match bans.
The defensive duo were given straight red cards inside the first 33 minutes of the 1-0 win at Brighton on Saturday.
Boss Jimmy Mullen insisted after the game an appeal was possible.
After reviewing the DVD footage, manager Jimmy Mullen has decided against contesting the referee’s decision.
Weston and Sansara will start their bans when Carlisle visit the Banks’s Stadium on Saturday.
They will not be available again until the home clash against Peterborough on October 11.

Having seen the tackles again, I don’t think either player can complain…..late and studs up! Palmer and Boertien are perfect replacements though, so no worries there!
I still want to see the team play with the same tempo and enthusiasm at home. Early to say it I know but at times we are playing Championship standard football, the trouble is we can’t do it aginst League one teams……will be very interesting and important game this weekend. Let’s hope the Saddlers can finally turn a corner and not let the last week come down to earth with a thud against Carlisle! COME PEOPLE OF WALSALL TURN OUT AND SUPPORT YOUR TEAM!!!!
