Crystal Palace defender Ryan Inniss receives five-game ban

Crystal Palace defender Ryan Inniss has received a five-game ban for biting West Ham youngster Reece Hannam.

The on-loan Newport defender has been hit with an increased five-game ban.

The centre-back received his punishment after being sent off following an off-the-ball clash against West Ham's under-21s.

The 24 year-old was dismissed in the 90th minute of the EFL Trophy match earlier this month after an incident involving Hannam.

Inniss admitted the charge and his ban will begin with immediate effect.
