King was spotted by the assistant referee and Main Standers getting involved with Damion Stewart and will now miss three matches following his red card.
Speaking to the Press Association about King's dismissal, Aidy Boothroyd was understanding and said: "If Marlon has raised his hand it gives him no option and he has to go."
