George is Innocent! - Ipswich Town News

Town midfielder George O'Callaghan has had his red card at Watford overturned by the FA appeals committee. The Irishman is now free to face Wolves at Portman Road this evening.

Boss Jim Magilton told the club site: "I always felt it was a harsh decision and obviously we're delighted that the appeal has been successful."

O'Callaghan, who was making his first start for the Blues at Vicarage Road, would have faced a three-match ban for violent conduct had Steve Bennett's red card decision been upheld at today's hearing.

The former Port Vale and Cork City man is the interview star of the latest issue of TWTD which is on sale from this evening. Our sellers will be around the ground for a couple of hours before kick-off, while subcriptions are available from here, either for small amounts of cash or for free.
