da fezbet: Aston Villa confirmed on Thursday that Henri Lansbury’s red card from Tuesday’s Championship clash against Middlesbrough had been rescinded.
da bet7: The former Arsenal youngster was heading for a three-game ban after picking up a straight red in the 64th minute of the match with Boro at Villa Park.
However, Villa have successfully appealed the sending off, and as a result, Lansbury will be available for Saturday’s trip to Barnsley in the Championship.
The news provided some relief for a set of supporters that have only seen their team pick up one win from seven Championship matches at the start of the 2017-18 campaign.
Indeed, a total of seven points has left Steve Bruce’s side down in 18th position in the table, and it would be fair to say that the Villa manager is coming under increasing pressure from the supporters.
Villa’s fanbase are not too pleased with life at the moment, but the fact that Lansbury, who has registered two league assists this season, will be available this weekend has at least provided some relief.
