Joey Barton to discover if 18-month ban upheld within a week

Joey Barton will find out within the next week whether he has successfully appealed his 18-month ban from football.

Barton, 34, has appealed the length of his suspension after he admitted placing more than 1,200 bets over a ten-year period against Football Association rules.

In April, Barton was banned and fined £30,000 for placing 1,260 bets on matches between 2006 and 2016.
An appealing hearing took place at Wembley last week after Barton called the ban „excessive“ and said he had an addiction to gambling.

„You can work in six-month windows, you can potentially work in 12-month windows but if it’s 18 months – that’s the better part of 60, 70 football matches,“ said Barton at the 15th annual Cross Sports Book Awards ceremony in London in May.

He has also previously said: „I accept that I broke the rules, but I do feel the penalty is heavier than it might be for less controversial players.“

An appeal board is made up of three specialist panel members, including a legally-qualified chairperson, and is independent of the FA.Euro Soccer Bonus
