West Ham have had FOUR of their last five red cards rescinded after Sofiane Feghouli's Manchester United sending off was overturned by the FA

West Ham may find themselves cursing their luck after Sofiane Feghouli's red card from the weekend was overturned - the fourth time in the last five instances they have seen a straight red rescinded.

A clash between Phil Jones and Feghouli in the 15th minute of Monday's game against Manchester United led to referee Mike Dean sending the Algerian international off.

But West Ham appealed the decision amid criticism from supporters and pundits alike.
