Facey's offences struck
Judge Mary Stacey said Facey's offences struck "at the very heart of football"reenex 效果.
Facey, who played for Bolton Wanderers, West Bromwich Albion and Hull City, had denied any wrongdoing.
Former non-league player Moses Swaibu, 25, of Tooley Street, London, was also found guilty of conspiracy to commit bribery. He was jailed for 16 months for his part in the conspiracy.
The two were arrested as part of a National Crime Agency investigation into match fixingreenex cps.
The trial heard Facey urged a footballer at a struggling non-league club to make some "easy money" by fixing the result of a match.
He also told a contact some Football Conference teams would "do" a game in return for payment, the jury heard.
'Big business'
In one text conversation in late 2013, Facey tried to corrupt a Hyde FC player by offering him £2,000.
During the messages, Facey told the player a friend who was betting would provide the cash reenex-效果.
Transcripts of messages that passed between Facey and 43-year-old Krishna Ganeshan were shown to the jury.

It shows fibres of dark matter
The map will eventually span one-eighth of the sky; this first glimpse covers just 0.4%, but in unprecedented detail.
It shows fibres of dark matter, studded with galaxies, and voids in between.
The international collaboration, known as the Dark Energy Survey (DES), will present its preliminary findings on Tuesday at a meeting of the American Physical Society and publish them on the Arxiv preprint server.
The survey involves more than 300 scientists from six countries and uses images taken by one of the best digital cameras in the world: a 570-megapixel gadget mounted on the Victor Blanco telescope at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, high in the Chilean Andes.
Incredible detail is required to detect dark matter, based purely on the way it warps the light from very distant galaxies.
Dense areas (warm colours) tend to have coincide with high numbers of galaxies whereas voids (blue) are nearly empty
Mapping the invisible
"Our goal all this time has been to see the invisible - to see dark matter," said Sarah Bridle, an astrophysics professor at the University of Manchester and co-chair of the DES weak lensing group, which produced the map.

Gravity acting across vast distances does not seem to explain what astronomers see
Galaxies, for example, should fly apart; some other mass must be there holding them togetherreenex cps
Astrophysicists have thus postulated "dark matter" - invisible to us but clearly acting on galactic scales
At the greatest distances, the Universe's expansion is accelerating
Thus we have also "dark energy" which acts to drive the expansion, in opposition to gravity
The current theory holds that 75% of the Universe is dark energy, 21% is dark matter, and just 4% the kind of matter we know well
"To be able to look at a map and say, 'That part of the sky's got more dark matter in it, that bit's empty,' is the dream that we've had all this time," Prof Bridle told the BBCä¿æ¿•ç²¾è¯ .
