Barry Fry suspended from football after accepting FA misconduct charge
Barry Fry has been suspended from all football and football-related activity for four months, three months of which are suspended for a period of two years.
Peterborough’s director of football accepted a charge of misconduct in relation to betting during the 2017/18 season in breach of FA Rule E8.
Fry was also fined £35,000 following an Independent Regulatory Commission hearing.
A statement on Peterborough’s website reads: „The accepted charges related to a bet on a Peterborough United player to finish as the highest goal scorer in the 2017/2018 season and for Peterborough United to be promoted.“
Fry has been director of football at Peterborough for over a decade after previously being manager at London Road for just under 10 years.
The 73-year-old’s suspension will begin on February 1.
He began his playing career as a youth team member at Manchester United, but never played a first team game and spent most of his time in non-league football.
It was as a manager that he rose to prominence during two spells with Barnet, as well as stints at Southend, Birmingham and Peterborough.
The charge was first announced on December 12, with Posh chairman Darragh MacAnthony describing the development at the time as a „storm in a teacup“.
MacAnthony tweeted: „Myself & club fully behind Barry on this. Storm in a teacup & will be resolved & full facts revealed once his hearing happens and finishes etc. Trust me on that.“
Despite MacAnthony’s message, Fry accepted the FA charge, which comes into effect from Friday.
