"Harratt will not be involved for City for this weekend’s Emirates FA Cup visit of Harrogate Town."

Harratt and two others committed the daytime poaching offences in East Yorkshire in April.

Following reports of hare coursing on farmland in the Wressle near Howden, a vehicle was stopped and three men dealt with by police for Game Act offences.

Harratt was on loan at Port Vale at the time.
