Leahy was sent-off for violent conduct following a clash with Charlie Raglan following a terrible tackle on Jordan Shipley.

Steve Cotterill revealed he had a lengthy discussion with Sam Purkiss after the referee's controversial performance during the 1-0 defeat and the club subsequently appealed the decision.

The Independent Regulatory Commission have now upheld the Salop's claim of wrongful dismissal.
