Todd's case came before the FFA's Match Review Panel after he tangled with Scott Jamieson and was later dismissed for two yellow card offences.

They banned him for two matches plus one mandatory week's ban for the double yellow but ordered them to be served concurrently.

Today the club decided it was better to accept the two week ban than risk an even bigger penalty.

A statement from the club said: "Following a thorough review of available video and discussions with independent legal representation Perth Glory will not seek to appeal the sanctions imposed on defender Andy Todd by the Match Review Panel.

"Todd is due to serve a mandatory one week suspension after receiving two yellow cards against Adelaide and the Match Review Panel's offer to concurrently serve an additional two match penalty was determined to be the best outcome for the player and club."

Perth Glory CEO Lui Giuliani said the possibility of a longer ban being imposed, should an appeal be dismissed, weighed heavily on their decision.

"We're disappointed at losing a player of Andy's quality for any length of time," Giuliani said. "The possibility however that he could receive additional match suspensions should an appeal be dismissed by the FFA Disciplinary Committee was not something Andy or the club was willing to risk.

"Andy is a model professional and has been outstanding for Perth since arriving in Western Australia this year. We're looking forward to him returning in time for our next home game on 1 November."
