Kompany's ban?

Might be making a massive faux pas here.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I saw Kompany receive a red card against Wolves and left the field of play.
Then he didn't play against QPR, I'm assuming because of a ban and we didn't appeal the card (it was a red, he was the last man, no question).
Unless my eyesight isn't what it used to be, he started against Newcastle.
I may have missed a rule change, and will look like a complete tit, but I thought a straight red was a three match ban.
Can't see anything on the club site or other sports sites saying we appealed the card.
I was under the impression a one match ban was for getting 5 yellows, or 2 yellows in the same match?
Am I missing something?
