Blues appealed against the straight red card shown to Barry and the FA have today accepted the appeal and he will be available for selection against Northampton Town on Saturday.

Phil Brown said: “It’s good news for us that Barry’s card has been overturned. He’s an important player and it wouldn’t have been ideal missing him for three games.”

Barry added: “It’s great news that it has been overturned and now I’m just really looking forward to Northampton on Saturday.”
