Renfrew FC have successfully appealed the straight red card shown to Kieran Healy during Wednesday night’s 4-1 defeat to Pollok.<\/p>\n
Healy was sent off in the 55th minute at New Western Park, leaving Renfrew to play the remainder of their second Scottish Lowland League West match with 10 men.<\/p>\n
The club confirmed the decision has now been overturned after video evidence was submitted as part of the appeal.<\/p>\n
Renfrew said the footage used was taken from Pollok’s YouTube channel.<\/p>\n
The successful appeal means Healy will be available for Renfrew’s trip to Broadwood Stadium tomorrow, where they will face Cumbernauld Colts for the first time in a competitive fixture.<\/p>\n
Renfrew said: “We\u2019ve successfully appealed Kieran Healys straight red card from Wednesdays game against Pollok, after submitting video evidence taken from our opponents YouTube channel.<\/p>\n
“Kieran will now be available for tomorrow\u2019s trip to Broadwood stadium and a first competitive fixture against Cumbernauld Colts.”<\/p>\n
Renfrew head into the match looking for their first points of the new Scottish Lowland League West season after defeats against Kilwinning Rangers and Pollok in their opening two fixtures.<\/p>\n
