If you told me that senior staff were arrested directly out of the stadium of UK clubs for financial crimes, my first two guesses would be Newcastle and West Ham. Both ownership groups are sleezy AND dumb. That's a bad combo.

You mean disciples of Mike Cashley and the porno twins were arrested for tax fraud? No wai!

""I have never placed a bet against my own team when in a position to influence the game, and I am pleased that in all of the interviews with the FA, and at the hearing, my integrity on that point has never been in question.""

Integrity, unquestionable, ability to influence games, questionable.

So he bet against his own team when he was out injured or suspended? Only reason he would word it that way.

Read his full statement. Says that he sometimes bet against his own team because he was upset about not being in the 18 man matchday squad.


So many gems in his full statement. All 8 billion words of it.

 

[deacvision7]

Full disclosure -- I do think the 18 month ban is way over the top considering what other offenses have gotten. Including similar betting offenses in the past.

 

[wsc8521s]

Damn, he did turrible on his bets (or at least the ones he posted)

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

Ok guys, give me some picks.

Leicester +500
Arsenal -188
Draw +360

Sunderland +236
Middlesbrough +113
Draw +252

Totty -184
Palace +520
Draw +340

Madrid -265
Deportivo Coruna +720
Draw +430

Real Sociedad +150
Valencia +186
Draw +243

Las Palmas +620
Leganes -200
Draw +330


No way Madrid loses right??

 

[Pete Sampras]

I think one of LEI-ARS and CP-TOT will draw

Bet 'em both at over +300

 

[deacvision7]

LEI - ARS Over 2.5 goals

That's all I've got.

I think it is going to be a thriller end-to-end match.

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

LEI - ARS Over 2.5 goals

That's all I've got.

I think it is going to be a thriller end-to-end match.

I've got it at 3.5. Tough to predict four goals and only get +115 on it.

Man, things have changed since I bet on sports. I never saw one over 2.5 iirc

 

[ipitytheblue]

I'd take the draw in the CP-TOT match

Setting emotional expectations low. Classic.

 

[deacvision7]

Can we just get to tomorrow when Marcus Rashford puts Kompany on his ass with a deft turn and finish please?

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

Ending up taking Leicester win, Arse-Leicester draw, and totty-palace draw.

 

[Biff Tannen]

3-4-2-1 for Arsenal today.

 

[Biff Tannen]

Welbeck comes on for Gibbs. Walcott hasn't been very busy today. Would like to see Giroud on for him.

 

[Biff Tannen]

And just like that Giroud is in for Gibbs. Why do people talk about how great Wenger is ? I can do this.

 

[deacvision7]

LEI - ARS Over 2.5 goals

That's all I've got.

I think it is going to be a thriller end-to-end match.

NAILED IT!


This is why I quit betting on sports. I'm an idiot.

 

[MNHammer]

Monreal as new striker?
