Chesterfield win Tommy Lee red card appeal

Chesterfield goalkeeper Tommy Lee has had his red card from the weekend overturned by the Football Association.

The Spireites stopper was dismissed in the first half against Sheffield United for what was deemed a professional foul, but will now be available for this weekend's trip to League One leaders Bristol City.

"Tommy has been playing well for us this season and we are pleased that he will be available this weekend," Chesterfield assistant manager Leam Richardson told the club website.

Chesterfield still won the game 3-2 against the Blades, who had also had a man sent off, and now sit in the third tier's playoff places.
