Trippier banned for .........

Page 1 of 2

posted on 23/12/20

England and Atletico Madrid right-back Kieran Trippier has been given a 10-week worldwide football ban and fined £70,000 after a Football Association panel found he broke betting rules.

The 30-year-old denied seven alleged breaches, but four were found proven during a personal hearing.

The offences occurred in July 2019, which is when Trippier joined Atletico from Tottenham Hotspur.

His ban from all football is effective immediately.

He will miss 12 games for La Liga leaders Atletico, including their Champions League last-16 first leg tie at home to Chelsea on 23 February.

However, he will be available for the Madrid derby on 7 March.

His ban relates to rule E8(1)(b), which states: "Where a participant provides to any other person any information relating to football which the participant has obtained by virtue of his or her position within the game and which is not publicly available at that time, the participant shall be in breach of this rule where any of that information is used by that other person for, or in relation to, betting."

Yes he got good odds on a Spurs title win and 'had a little nibble' on those odds.

Is this overseen by the FA?

just going on the article...bit odd that an FA panel can give him a worldwide ban.

By the sound of it he passed on inside information to friends/family so that they could have an unfair advantage when betting.

The footballer equivalent of insider trading.

Bet one of the family/friend didn't get the memo where they needed to keep this confidential.

Maybe they were successful in doing it and kept on betting and inevitably they let the cat out of the bag.

Sturrridge did a similar thing. As I remember with the Sturrridge case it was literally just a text to his brother that got him in trouble. They come down harshly. Makes you wonder how often footballers do it. Equally I wonder how it comes out - I doubt their family and friends dob them in. Betting companies report to FA if they see the brother/sister etc. of X footballer making suspicious bets?

I guess with this type of offence if you do it once or twice you probably get away with it but if you get greedy you get found out and the footballer gets hauled over the coals.

If he'd put a bet on himself being banned, would they still have banned him ?

Surely was worth a try!

Remember the story about the fat goalkeeper eating a pie during the match? That was both hilarious and sad when he lost his job.
