John Terry FA hearing over alleged racist language towards Anton Ferdinand continues into third day Former Chelsea coach Ray Wilkins, who also testified on Terry's behalf in court, has said he is prepared to go to the FA hearing to support the defender, who announced his international retirement on Sunday. Wilkins told ESPN: "I called John immediately after his decision to resign from the England team to see how he is. We didn't talk about my attendance at the FA hearing, but I am there for him if he needs me. I gave evidence on his behalf at the magistrates' court and I would do so again at the FA hearing, if they wish me to.
