Joey Barton appears at FA hearing over betting charges

The 34-year-old was charged with misconduct relating to 1,260 bets placed over a 10-year period.

Burnley midfielder Joey Barton is appearing before a Football Association commission on Friday in relation to betting charges.

The 34-year-old was charged with misconduct in December relating to 1,260 bets placed over a 10-year period and his original hearing in March was postponed after a member of the commission was ill on the day.
