    Lincoln player banned for 6 years after Burnley game

    Bradley Wood "influenced a football betting market" by earning two yellow cards in action for Lincoln against Ipswich and Burnley.
    Wood denied the two most severe charges, but was found to have committed 25 betting-related breaches in all - and was banned until March 8, 2024.

    The 26-year-old has been fined £3,725 and ordered to pay costs of £1,550, over bookings in Lincoln's January 17, 2017 clash with Ipswich and the February 18, 2017 encounter with Burnley.
    Two people known to Wood placed bets on both matches that gambling firms noticed were "atypical in the context of the caution betting market", according to the FA's written judgement. £10000 was won but not all paid.

    Naughty boy.

    The FA wouldn't allow Joey Barton to do the half time draw last night at the Turf because he is banned from appearing on the pitch!
    I wonder if you could have got a bet on that!
