Glory was booted out of the finals and fined $269,000 after FFA's board found the club guilty of serious salary cap breaches.

The club claims it should have been FFA's independent disciplinary committee which heard the case instead of the FFA board.

The FFA disciplinary committee, comprising John Marshall SC, Lachlan Gyles SC, and Shaun McCarthy, will hear Glory's appeal at 5.30pm AEST on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, Glory coach Kenny Lowe admitted everyone at the club is feeling down about the salary cap saga, but he implored his players to get on with the job.

"It's business as usual. It can't be any other way," Lowe said ahead of Sunday's Round 26 clash against Melbourne City.

"Obviously everyone's a bit sad at the moment, but we've got to get on with it."
