Get in now with a bid whilst he's out of favour!

So translated into simpleton's terms for myself; he is only actually banned for 1 month, with a 3 month suspended ban hanging over him until July 2016? I assume the ban starts at the start of the season seeng as a 1 month ban now wouldn't actually mean he missed anything?

Yes mate... and i like you, would assume it starts at the start of the season too.......Oh and he was fined £18,000.

Makes sense doesn't it, hope we do

[Busheyboy]

don't think we've any chance of getting him as he's proved he can cut it in the PL
if Bale goes, they may have Townsend in their squad.
if he stays, they'll probably loan him to a PL team

[ollyhoops]

Wow... now is the time to buy him!!!!

[knocker]

According to sky, the month ban starts now.

[QPR_NW10]

do we know what it's for? gambling? better on us to lose? couldn't blame him really....

The Telegraph say this:


An independent regulatory commission hearing imposed the sanction, which has been backdated to May 23 when he voluntarily withdrew from the England Under-21 squad.

[kenthoop]

I've heard that he bet on Arsenal to finish above Spurs, so could've been accused of match fixing

[MattyRangers]

Ban or no ban, no chance we can get him. PL player all dya long, even if it is a loan away for Spurs again - will be a host of PL clubs queueing ahead of us. A silly little ban for gambling ain't guna put people off.

"Andros Townsend's ban is back-dated to May 23rd, so he'll be available for Spurs pre-season matches."

So he hasn't actually been banned from anything? The FA really are a bunch of clowns.

[vblockranger]

I think he would have been banned for the U21 game but he pulled out voluntarily.
