QPR Official Site - APPEAL LODGED
QPR have formally lodged an appeal to the Football Association following Damion Stewart's sending off against Norwich City on Saturday.
The Jamaican international was giving his marching orders inside the opening five minutes at Carrow Road, as ten-man Rangers slumped to a disappointing 3-0 defeat.
Speaking after the defeat, R's First Team Coach Luigi De Canio bemoaned the decision to send Stewart off, commenting: "I didn't think Damion deserved to go.
"Referees have to make split-second decisions, and it can be difficult for them, but I feel we were unlucky." QPR
