6 months apparently.
Anything up to 2 Years.
FA rules on 'social drugs' such as cocaine state: 'FA Anti-Doping Regulations prohibit players from taking social drugs (such as cocaine, cannabis and ecstasy) at all times.
'If you take social drugs recreationally you will face a suspension from football of up to six months, but if you are tested after a match and a social drug is detected, you could face a two year suspension.
'It's when the drug is detected, not when you took it that counts.'
He failed a post match random drugs test therefore, he is looking at a ban of up to 2 Years.

Has he issued the standard 'it was a one off, made a mistake, let my team down, learned my lesson' statement all sportsmen who are caught come up with ?

Will Hull terminate his contract though and help him onto to a rehab course?
