HEARTS and Partick Thistle have successfully appealed the yellow cards shown to Jamie Walker and Ade Azeez for diving during last weekend's Premiership fixtures.

Jags forward Azeez was booked for simulation during the 1-0 defeat to Celtic last Friday, before Jambos winger Walker was shown yellow a day later as Hearts fell to a 2-0 defeat against Rangers.

The Scottish FA confirmed today that both yellow cards have now been rescinded following consideration by a Disciplinary Tribunal at Hampden on Thursday. 

The two clubs face one another this weekend at Tynecastle as new Hearts boss Ian Cathro looks for his first win in charge of the Gorgie club.
