Doncaster Rovers midfielder cleared of spitting in Swansea match
DONCASTER Rovers midfielder Richie Wellens has been cleared of spitting at Swansea City's Leon Britton.
Wellens was charged with misconduct by the Football Association after Britton alleged that spitting took place during a Championship clash between the two clubs two months ago.
The case was dismissed this afternoon by an FA disciplinary tribunal and Rovers manager Sean O'Driscoll said: "We are pleased that the case has now been resolved. We had a fair hearing and we would have abided by any decision that the FA had come to. Now we can get on with the football."
