Billy Davies has appealed a touchline ban for allegedly making contact with the referee after Nottingham Forest’s clash with Leicester City.
Forest manager Davies has already served a two-match suspension enforced by the Football Association after accepting a charge of “using abusive and/or insulting words and/or behaviour towards the Match Referee after the fixture”.
The 49-year-old was banned for a further three matches for “deliberately making contact” with official Anthony Taylor, but an appeal hearing is now set to take place on March 19.
A FA statement read: “Nottingham Forest manager Billy Davies has lodged an appeal against a three-match touchline ban imposed on him by an Independent Regulatory Commission, following an incident of misconduct in relation to his side’s game against Leicester City on 19 February 2014.
