Decision to clear Bennett delights City boss
The club’s second appeal against the yellow card the defender received in last month’s 2-2 draw with Waterford United proved successful yesterday, with an FAI hearing resulting in the lifting of the ban and clearing the way for Bennett to play in the final game of the season.
Said Richardson: “I am delighted on two counts. The obvious one is because this was something that he didn’t deserve. But I’m equally delighted that the system acknowledged the mistake and was seen willing to rectify its mistake. I think that is most encouraging thing that’s come out of this for me.”
