Jay Rodriguez eager to move on after being cleared by the FA of racially abusing Brighton's Gaetan Bong: 'The truth always comes out'

Jay Rodriguez wants to move on after a Football Association charge of racially abusing Brighton's Gaetan Bong was found not to be not proven, with the West Brom forward saying 'the truth always comes out'.

The 28-year-old has been playing with a cloud over his head for four months after being accused of making an alleged comment to the Brighton defender when the sides met in January.

The FA announced on Friday that the Independent Regulatory Commission 'determined that on the balance of probabilities the allegation was not proven' against Rodriguez.
