Hearts lose appeal against Leonard's red card

Hearts midfielder Marc Leonard will be suspended for Saturday's home game with Motherwell after his red card away to Livingston was upheld by a Scottish FA fast-track panel. The 24-year-old, on loan from Birmingham City, was sent off in stoppage time of Sunday's 2-2 draw for a cynical pull on Robbie Muirhead near the halfway line to prevent the striker breaking clear. Hearts appealed against the decision but those at the tribunal hearing agreed referee Kevin Clancy was correct to send the player off.
