Ross County appeal Jack Baldwin’s red card from Motherwell defeat

Ross County have submitted an appeal against the red card shown to Jack Baldwin in the team’s defeat to Motherwell on Saturday.

Baldwin was dismissed by referee Don Robertson after a challenge on Motherwell striker Kevin van Veen when he was through on goal in the 70th minute of the Premiership match in Dingwall.

Robertson initially showed a yellow card but then upgraded it to red after reviewing the incident on the pitchside monitor.

Van Veen went on to score twice against 10-man County to secure a 2-0 win for his side.

Ross County feel Robertson made the wrong call and now want an independent panel to review the decision. A date for the fast-track hearing has not yet been announced.

A County statement read: “Ross County can confirm we have appealed the red card shown to Jack Baldwin in Saturday’s match against Motherwell.

“We will update supporters once the appeal process has concluded.”
