Interesting article. I must admit I'm bemused as to why it is illegal to bet on your own team to win. Surely that would give you extra motivation?

the second article is a far better read than the first, but I sincerely hope that the £800 wages mentioned in both were not what he got here!

Last game of the season, rumour had it they'd all be on the bench as Coley was going to play the kids. Fearon in goal et al. They thought they'd sit on the bench and make a few easy grand. A hideous disgusting thing to do yes, but let's remember nobody was found guilty of match fixing, only betting on the outcome. So what you say can't be levelled at Andy. |
Re: Mangan speaks on gambling.
and to be fair to the memory of the incident coley had played the kids the previous week as well!
