Tiote sentenced

Newcastle midfielder Cheick Tiote has been given a suspended jail sentence after admitting to possessing a fake driving license. The Ivory Coast international was handed a seven-month sentence, suspended for 18 months, by a judge at Newcastle Crown Court on Monday. Tiote bought a fake Belgian license when traveling through Belgium for 15,000 euros (US$20,700) and then attempted to swap the forgery for a full British license. Judge James Goss told Tiote that he would have to complete 180 hours of unpaid work.
