Andy Halliday ban overturned as Rangers win red-card appeal

Andy Halliday is free to play for Rangers this weekend after his red card against Hibernian was downgraded.

The midfielder was sent off for butting Fraser Fyvie during a 4-2 win on December 28, but the Hibs player was subsequently banned for simulation.

And after a successful appeal Halliday's red has been reduced to a yellow for adopting a threatening attitude.
