Disciplinary Procedure Advice

[dubai2000]

does anyone know anything about the disciplinary procedure regarding appeals?

we had a player sent off, got 8weeks, it has been appealed within the time-frame which was Sunday 3rd April, now some 17days later we have still not got word of the appeal. The guy got 8 weeks, but we think that we can get this down to 4weeks, however if CHC give him 4weeks, he will be available on Sunday to play for us.

surely if the hearing is not heard before Sunday then his case is prejudiced on the basis that if he had got 4, he shoulda played at the weekend?

any thoughts?

we have chased up the appeal several times

As someone who is familiar with both sides of the process I don't think you've much of a case (to say it was prejudiced)

If he got eight weeks then I assume he was reported for a category three offence? If so what did the refs report say?

Unless you have video evidence to counter the refs report and the report is explicit, 99 times out of hundred they will go with the refs report.

You can pm me if you don't want to comment on the board.
