You Lucky Lucky Boy !! That is a genuine shock, I really didn't see that one coming.
Just told the boy that Darren Purse's red card is rescinded and that he can now be involved in the F.A. Cup Final. His reaction: "That's not fair". :>) He's not a big Purse fan.
Really pleased for Purse but, without doubt in my mind, he's very lucky. Dare I suggest it's almost political given the current rift and feeling between City and FAW?
When I think of all the far more unjust red cards they upheld, including Hasselbaink's at Colchester recently, it's amazing this one got overturned.
Still onwards and upwards.

Just out of interest, does anyone know what Cardiff City based their appeal against Darren Pures's red card on...?
From the coverage, their appeal was based on the foul being unitentional and an accident.
Dave Jones is quoted as saying Purse only had eyes for the ball.
Not usually enough to overturn them but something happened this time.
