Devitt red card appeal success

Jamie Devitt has had his red card from Saturday's game against Wycombe Wandereres rescinded


MORECAMBE midfielder Jamie Devitt has had his red card from Saturday's game against Wycombe Wandereres rescinded.

The Shrimps appealed the decision after studying video evidence of the incident which happened early in the second half of the 3-1 defeat.

Manager Jim Bentley said he was delighted with the decision.

He said: "We felt very strongly at the time that the offence did not warrant a red card and after studying a video of the incident closely we felt it was right and proper to appeal the decision.

"We are delighted that the authorities have agreed with our viewpoint and I am pleased that Jamie will be available for the next three games because he is a big player for us.''
