Don't know the circumstances with Todd but sounds like the self punishment mentality that our sporing authorities often seem to impose on themselves. They used to have a rule whereby you couldn't be selected for England if you were serving a club ban - until Captain Marvel, Bryan Robson was sent off against us. I think the Rugby team won't pick overseas based players and the cricket team wouldn't pick Ben Stokes because he had a fight in a street.
 
He asked not to be picked for an Under 23 summer tour of the USA(?). He reasoned he'd had a long season with Derby and wanted to spend some time with his wife and new born son. The FA didn't like it and they decided not to pick him for two years, although they insisted it wasn't a ban.
