Arsenal legend Wright slams FA over QPR confusion

Arsenal legend Ian Wright cannot believe the handling of QPR's case by the FA..

In his column for The Sun, Wright rapped: "It was an absolute joke that the FA planned to give their verdict on the QPR disciplinary case today... 24 hours before the final game of the Championship season.

"Now they have made it even worse by postponing their decision.

"They knew there was something wrong with the signing of Alejandro Faurlin last September.

"But they didn't charge the club until March and then waited until May to hold the hearing.

"Why have they been dragging their feet for so long? What have they been doing for the last eight months?

"The FA brought in new rules specifically banning third-party ownership after the Carlos Tevez fiasco four years ago.

"The minute they knew QPR had broken those rules, they should have been punished there and then. Why do they even need to have an inquiry?"
