    Ben Turner gets 5 game ban for racist abuse.




    Haven't seen any other details yet, but as someone who gave me one of my best city supporting moments, it disappointing.

    I don't know the guy but from everything we saw from him here, it's pretty hard to believe isn't it?

    Re: Ben Turner gets 5 game ban for racist abuse.

    I'm intrigued to know on what basis he was found guilty. If I'm not mistaken, it was very much a case of one players word against the other, Turner strongly denying the accusation. Is it a case of innocent if there is reasonable doubt or balance of probabilities?

    Witness statements maybe or an admittance of guilt to get a shorter ban?

    Edit - forget that admittance of guilt. I just read that he strongly denies it.

    I believe they have the option to appeal, be interesting to see if they take it.

    In these instances I think the punishment should fit the crime.

    During the next Burton/Brentford game Yennaris should be allowed to yell "HONKY" very loudly in Turner's general direction on at least three occasions throughout the game.
