Rangers win Ryan Jack's red card appeal

Rangers have won their appeal against Ryan Jack's red card in their controversial defeat to Hibernian at Ibrox.

Jack was sent off by referee John Beaton following a melee in which he was involved with Hibs' Anthony Stokes in the home side's 3-2 defeat last Saturday.

However, the red card has been rescinded after Jack's claim of wrongful dismissal for violent conduct was upheld and the midfielder will now be free to face Hearts on Saturday after the decision by a Scottish Football Association tribunal.

Hearts forward Isma Goncalves is also available to play after winning his wrongful dismissal claim but Motherwell were only successful with one of their three appeals.

Goncalves was sent off after an off the ball incident with Kirk Broadfoot in Hearts' win over Kilmarnock, but the red card has been rescinded and he is available for this weekend's Premiership match at Rangers.

Well defender Charles Dunne has had his appeal for wrongful dismissal against St Johnstone upheld and his red card rescinded.

However, he has failed to overturn his sending off against Ross County in their 3-2 Betfred Cup win during the previous week. His suspension will be applied immediately.

Motherwell's Trevor Carson was also sent off against St Johnstone in the Premiership clash last weekend, which the Perth side won 4-1, and has had his claim of wrongful dismissal for denying a goal or an obvious goal scoring opportunity dismissed.

That means his suspension will be applied immediately.
