Leeds midfielder Lee Bowyer was placed on the transfer list with immediate effect today after the England under-21 star refused to accept a fine imposed by the club.
On Friday Bowyer was found not guilty of affray and grievous bodily harm with intent in relation to an assault on Asian student Sarfraz Najeib last year.
But Leeds feel the player, who was branded a liar by the trial judge, breached the club's code of conduct as he was under the undue influence of alcohol on the night of the attack.
Leeds have imposed a fine of four weeks wages on Bowyer, while also insisting he undergoes community programme work for the remainder of his contract.
Bowyer, already facing an estimated legal bill of Stg£1 million resulting from the trial, has refused to accept the internal disciplinary action, forcing the club to place him on the transfer list.
He has been told he will not be selected unless he accepts the club's punishment.
"The club acknowledges and accepts the verdict of the jury that Lee Bowyer was innocent of all charges," Leeds chairman Peter Ridsdale said in a statement.
"Nevertheless, and in his own admission, he was under undue influence of alcohol in the city centre late at night, which is against the club's code of conduct.
"Leeds United has imposed a fine of four weeks wages against Lee Bowyer, we would also insist that Lee work at the forefront of our community programme for the whole of the balance of his contract.
"Lee has also been warned regarding his future behaviour both on and off the field.
"Regrettably, Lee Bowyer has refused to accept this club disciplinary sanction and has, therefore, been placed on the transfer list with immediate effect.
"As a result of this Lee Bowyer will not be available for team selection by David O'Leary unless he accepts the club's disciplinary sanction."
Ridsale said centre back Woodgate, 21, had been given a fine of eight weeks wages.
"Jonathan has asked that this money be put towards funding work within our inner city communities, which we are more than happy to agree to," Ridsdale said.
"Jonathan will commit to work within our community programme. Jonathan has also been given a final warning regarding his future conduct."
O'Leary bitterly criticised both players over the weekend, saying they had spoiled the reputation of the northern English club, last season's Champions League semifinalists.
"What did they think they were doing, boozed up and running through the streets?" O'Leary told the Sunday People. "They were inviting trouble. And, boy, did they get it.
"They have brought the good name of this club into disrepute.
"Should they have been running through the streets of Leeds, after a boozy night out at the Majestyk nightclub? Absolutely not." - ireland.com / Reuters / AFP
