Taunton Ban


Recommended Posts

Still find it strange that the betting allegations against the Truro City players (who were all of course team mates of Sullivan at Taunton a few seasons ago), isn't being talked about. He is the second current Taunton player to be suspended after Ollie Chamberlain was previously hit with a four month ban and fine. Chamberlain was found to have bet placed bets on opponents in two league matches he played in.

Read that the FA are investigating rules breaches at five different Southern League clubs.

Not up to speed about Matt Wright, are there also allegations surrounding him?

I do not know much about rules so does the ban mean all football or just certain levels? makes sense if it’ is all football 

Pretty sure it's all FA affiliated football. Puzzled by the reaction on the Taunton and Tiverton Twitter pages to the bans for Wright and Sullivan. The Tiverton one in particular talks about it almost like he's a picked up a long term injury ("we offer him our help and support, and look forward to seeing him back.").

With six of the players named all playing together for Taunton when these alleged offences happened, you have to wonder what was going on at the club with regards to culture and management.

Leigh Robinson was manager at Taunton from 2012-2018, so was in charge when some of these alleged offences took place (2014-19).

Suspension handed down in November 2021, that injury was well timed.
