Coleraine say they "welcome" the Irish FA Disciplinary Committee's decision to overturn Jamie Glackin's 10-game ban.
The Bannsiders winger was facing up to his season being over after he was charged with breaching rule 27.2 of the IFA’s Disciplinary Code.
The charge was in relation to comments made on social media, which Coleraine subsequently appealed.

Coleraine issued a brief statement on Thursday.
It read: "Coleraine Football Club has welcomed the decision by the Irish FA Disciplinary Committee to overturn a ten match ban for Jamie Glackin…
"The Club’s appeal was successful at last night’s hearing.
"Coleraine FC and Jamie Glackin would like to thank their legal team of John J Rice & Co., Solicitors and the Counsel, Richard McConkey BL and everyone involved in providing a positive outcome to our appeal."
Rule 27.2 of the IFA’s Disciplinary Code states: “Anyone who offends the dignity of a person or group of persons through contemptuous, discriminatory or denigratory words or actions concerning disability, gender or sexual orientation shall be suspended for a minimum of 10 matches. Furthermore, a fine shall be imposed.
“Where the perpetrator is a player a minimum fine of £500 will be imposed on senior clubs.”
Meanwhile, Belfast Live Sport understands Coleraine are appealing Aaron Jarvis' dismissal against Larne last Saturday.
The midfielder was shown a red card by referee Shane Andrews for an alleged headbutt, an offence which carries a six-game ban.
