What about the bet on the Dagenham game?

I just think that if he had been guilty he would not have been so adamant about his innocence nor would he have returned to training with the club but would have done as Rocky did and stayed away when pre-season began.

Cav was invited back to the club for training and Rocky wasn't even contacted. It's not as though Rocky 'stayed away' he just wasn't asked back.

I really hope he goes for his appeal and is vindicated but to be honest I don't think the FA want to be proved wrong on this and this could be the reason they took so long to bring the charges and hold the hearing

The FA probably took so long to bring the charges because they wanted to gather all the evidence to make sure the players were guilty before naming names and risking prosecution for defamation of character.
