Surprised the red has been overturned. I did think when I saw it the other day that a caution would probably be sufficient mind.

Happy that the Referee gave the red, content that it was overturned. The Referee was imo not incorrect in Law and we don’t know what mitigation was provided in respect of the appeal. What I would also say is, that at the time the Crawley captain played the ball against the head/shoulder of the opponent, there was no apology, in fact there was some angst.
