Stockport County winger Jack Diamond has been handed a three-game ban for violent conduct.

The 25-year-old was found to have behaved in a manner which constituted violent conduct in the 90th minute of the 2-1 win over Huddersfield Town on Easter Monday.

The incident was not picked up at the time by match officials but was caught on camera, the FA said., external

Diamond denied the charge, but an independent regulatory commission found it to be proven, meaning he will miss Stockport's final two games of the League One season and the first leg of the play-offs semi-final.
