Tuesday 20 October 2015 15:37, UK
Bristol Rovers have won their appeal against Jermaine Easter's red card at Mansfield last weekend.
Easter was given a straight red in Saturday's Sky Bet League 2 fixture for allegedly headbutting a Mansfield player just before half-time in the 2-1 victory.
But the official Rovers Twitter account said on Tuesday: "Jermaine Easter's appeal is successful!! He can play this evening!!"
The 33-year-old Wales international, who is Rovers' joint top scorer this season with five goals, is now expected to feature in the home league game against Notts County on Tuesday night.
Rovers have won their last four games in league and cup and Easter has scored four times in his last five appearances.
