Former Watford midfielder Pierre Dwomoh has been hit with an 11-match suspension by the Football Association following a series of racist incidents involving an Under-21 team-mate. The governing body described the player’s actions as "completely unacceptable" after he targeted a fellow professional with heritage-based slurs during training ground warm-ups.
