Commision to hear Gnohere appeal

Last updated : 16 March 2005 By Editor

Gnohere has lodged an appeal with the board of the Football League and his case will be heard by the Football Disciplinary Commission.

If Gnohere’s appeal is upheld, Rangers will have to honour the remainder of his contract – a scenario Leicester faced until winning their own appeal after being ordered by a commission to reinstate Dennis Wise in 2002.

Clubs are obliged to continue providing treatment for players whose contracts expire or are terminated after they suffer an injury, so Gnohere can still undergo rehabilitation at QPR having suffered cruciate damage last year.
