    John Terry's troubles look set to continue as the FA now reopens its own inquiry which could see bans for both the former England captain and Anton Ferdinand.
    Terry was cleared of a racially aggravated public order offence against Ferdinand at Westminister Magistrate's Court yesterday, but the pair now face charges brought by the Football Association.

    Fresh charges: Following the conclusion of the court case the FA is set to reopen its own inquiry to decide whether Terry and Ferdinand should face charges of bringing the game into disrepute

    The FA, who had a lawyer attending every day of the week-long trial, said they would look at the findings of the court case before deciding whether or not to bring any proceedings against Terry and Ferdinand.

    The FA will decide whether Terry should still be charged with using abusive and insulting words and with making reference to Ferdinand’s ethnic origin and colour.

    If the decision is yes Terry would face a ban from playing.
    Ferdinand could be charged with bringing the game into disrepute for the comments he made during the exchange.
