All for more regulation of gambling but this just doesn't make any sense and seems like FA very willing to be seen to be doing something against gambling but very unwilling for clubs to part with the vast amounts of money they receive from it.

Yerry Mina will have to pay a fine worth £10,000 but won't serve a suspension after admitting to a breach of the English Football Association's betting rules.

The FA fined Mina on Tuesday after he made an appearance in a betting advert for Colombian company Betjuego, per BBC Sport.
