Sat 23rd Aug - The Walkers Stadium
By Dane Wright
Tranmere Rovers have successfuly appealed against Gareth Roberts sending off during their 1-1 draw with Bradford City.
The 27-year-old defender saw red after being booked for a second time by referee Paul Danson. However on this occasion the referee cautioned the wrong player as the foul had actually been committed by Ryan Taylor.
Rovers appealed on the grounds of mistaken identity and the Football Association agreed, transferring the second caution to Taylor.
Roberts will now be free to play in Tranmere's next game with Colchester.
