YEMS IN SEGREGATION HEARING

An InDEPEnDEnT FA panel has begun hearing the case against manager John Yems, who has been charged with 16 counts of racial discrimination towards his own players at Crawley.

Sportsmail revealed that numerous Crawley players had reported Yems for allegedly racially abusing them last season, including the claim that he ran segregated changing rooms at the club’s training ground, which led to him being charged by the FA.

Yems denies the allegations and a verdict is expected in the next few weeks.
