Ebanks-Landell had been convicted on March 18, 2021, but the case was adjourned to consider if there were mitigating circumstances for not ordering a disqualification.

He was also fined £1,667 and ordered to pay £90 costs and £166 victim surcharge.

Magistrates said they took his guilty plea into consideration when imposing the sentence.
The bench gave him until May 3 to pay the £1,923 court penalty.
