Terry hearing goes into fourth day

John Terry will return for a fourth day of his disciplinary hearing tomorrow into a charge the Chelsea skipper used racist language on the pitch.

Terry spent eight hours today at the FA independent regulatory hearing when he denies a charge that he used a racist slur towards QPR’s Anton Ferdinand in October last year.

The 31-year-old was accompanied by Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck for the duration of the hearing and both departed shortly before 4.30pm.
