Emi Martinez

Was very sharp off his line to deny DCL in first half. By being out quick I think he often spooks the forward a bit. Heavy first touch and makes it very difficult then.

Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez appears to be breaching the FA's rules regarding promoting betting companies.

According to a press release from ‘bplay’, a sports betting website in his native Argentina, Martinez became a brand ambassador more than a year and a half ago.

Under FA regulations, professional footballers in England are strictly prohibited from personally promoting, advertising, or endorsing betting activity that they themselves are forbidden from engaging in.

You're having a fucking laugh? When is this likely to get resolved?

[Somniloquism]

Fine at most.

Yerry Mina who appeared in an ad only got a fine if I recall correctly.

8 match ban and being forced to repatriate and pick Olsen.

Points deduction and spurs awarded 35 points. 

Probably our best scenario.
