Bolton's Campo escapes suspension
By Chris Borg

Bolton defender Ivan Campo has had one of two yellow cards he received at Highbury last weekend rescinded - meaning he is free from suspension.

The Spaniard received a second yellow card for throwing the ball away as Arsenal tried to line up a free-kick in their 2-1 victory - but referee David Pugh has reconsidered his decision.

Pugh watched footage of the incident and came to the conclusion that Campo did not deserve the second caution.

An FA statement confirmed: 'We can confirm that following the sending off, referee David Pugh has informed the Football Association that, having viewed a video of the incident, he now wishes to withdraw the second booking.

'Therefore, only the first caution for dissent will be recorded against the player and he will not be required to serve a suspension.'
