Minimum 10-match ban for discrimination - FA

Players found guilty of discrimination will face a ban of at least 10 matches under strengthened Football Association rules coming in for the new season.In previous seasons, suspensions ranged from six to 12 matches for 'aggravated breaches' of FA Rule E3.2, which relates to misconduct around references to ethnic origin, colour, race, nationality, religion, sex, gender, gender reassignment, sexual orientation, or disability.The strengthened sanction, which also applies to managers and individuals in the technical area, is part of the FA's commitment to "delivering a game free from discrimination".
