Bowyer appeal successful - WHUFC
The FA have rescinded the red card shown to Lee Bowyer in Saturday's game
against Birmingham City
12.02.2008

Lee Bowyer will be eligible to play when West Ham United go to Fulham on 23
February after his weekend dismissal was overturned following a successful
appeal. The midfielder's case was considered by a special hearing at
Football Association headquarters in London on Tuesday afternoon. The club
had appealed against referee Mark Clattenburg's decision to show Bowyer a
straight red card in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Birmingham City following an
88th-minute challenge involving visiting captain Damien Johnson.
