Torquay United midfielder Joss Labadie has been handed a 10-match ban by the Football Association after being found guilty of violent conduct.

The 23-year-old has also been fined £2,000 by English football's governing body.

Labadie, who denied the charge and requested a non-personal hearing, had been accused of biting during his side's match with Chesterfield on February 15.

Torquay have confirmed that they are in the process of deciding whether to appeal the decision.
