Cheltenham Town have succeeded with their bid to have Damian Spencer's red card in Saturday's defeat to MK Dons overturned.

The Football Association decided that Spencer's dismissal was not justified and have withdrawn the three-match suspension that was hanging over the striker.

The transfer-listed forward had scored a hat-trick in the game which the Robins lost 5-3, a result that extended their winless sequence to nine league and cup matches.

He had been handed a red card by referee Kevin Friend for a heavy challenge on the Dons' Dean Lewington.
