just found this Accrington Stanley captain banned after betting on his team | Football | guardian.co.uk

ta red, hope yer feeling better.

harwood red · 07-08-2009, 22:39

yes ta cashy...that report only shows a £3,500 fine, in fact it says he's got exactly the same as robbie williams as in fine and ban, I think the difference with cav was although his bets were supposedly small it happened on more than one occasion

According to this, the fine is £3,500, not £14,000. It also seems that they other four are likely to appeal, as might Cav. Meanwhile, does anyone know what happened with Leighton McGivern?

They are making examples of the lot of them...........bans will be reduced on appeal but not to nothing!!

Am I right in saying Cav and Jay Harris played in the game..??? If thats the case they are very lucky its not much much worse!!!

cashman · 07-08-2009, 22:53

doubt very much if they will be reduced on appeal jiffy bag, more chance of em being elongated,

i think they will be upheld,end of.

Now that it's all be decided, I think it's time to draw a line under the whole affair. It's been a horrible year or so for Stanley and the club are obviously keen to wipe the slate clean and start afresh (see official site).
I agree with that. It is a new start and we can all pull together to make sure that this one doesn't go off the rails.

VALAIRIAN · 08-08-2009, 08:22

Well said that man!! Onward and upwards from here on in, lets look to the future and not the past.

Haggis316 · 08-08-2009, 08:51

Had more on this but Harwood beat me to it.

However much we might not agree,rules are rules.

I'm with you Pete, he should leave the club now and never darken the doors again. Sorry to those who think he should stay, but that gives the message that cheats prosper, which in this case, I don't think he should. It's his own fault, he got caught. Now lets draw the line under the whole affair and look forward to a new season with hope and and determination to show the world what a great club Accrington Stanley is.

I'm absolutely devastated. Can't enjoy the match today, glad we're not at home.
As with Coley, Cav still has my full support.

I'm staying in complete and utter denial until there's official word from the club / the FA.

cmonstanley · 08-08-2009, 14:08

they are liabilties if they are proven to have bet in a game they played remember that guy in the sixties who got a life ban. no sponsor in their right mind will touch stanley until they have gone in fact how can you encourage people to go and watch stanley with this hanging over the club sorry but anybody who is found guilty should never be allowed to wear the stanley colours again there is too much sweeping under the carpet nobody will be encouraged to go and watch stanley when there is a doubt like this hanging over the club. if anybody at stanley was/is found guilty they should be sacked straight away any body else in their job found guilty of gross misconduct would be

Preston Red · 08-08-2009, 14:53

Cavanagh has been found guilty & should go! Time to start season with a clean slate & optimism, we have a lot to look forward too, hopefully we will get an official statement soon that he's gone.

cashman · 08-08-2009, 15:08

just been on 2br, club cannot give statement until official notification from F.A. all they have is media report at the moment, shaker its time to draw a line under this crap, to say ya can't enjoy todays game cos of it is nuts, i can enjoy it better knowing those who made bets have been dealt with.
