Matt1892 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Just now, Pata said: I don't see a conspiracy. Would've been a massive mess like the Sala case if he had moved before the accusations were made. Think FA (if it was them) are doing the right thing by letting Man City know about this beforehand. Man City would look to launch a claim for compensation against the FA if they knew an investigation was taking place and still ratified the deal.

brummie Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 The Paqueta dodginess was in a match against us that ended in a draw. The only fair result is that we are awarded a win. Which means we finished a place higher, and thus will be in the Europa League. Has anyone got a phone number for Brighton? I need to break the bad news.

Promising young player, but it’s not as though the Champo is somehow beneath him. He was told he wouldn't be picked for Italy if he's playing in the Championship, which is why he's been pushing so hard for a move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the same time I can’t imagine he’ll thrive under Dyche. Leeds fans proper hate him now either way. Carried on like a right little twat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Will they be able to prove it was him though, the accounts were people close to him, we dont know how much money they have. He could just say I gave them cash and its up to them how they spend it, its dodgy but it could be hard to pin down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s acted deliberately to trigger a bet (for whoever’s benefit) that’s not just a sporting infringement- it’s a crime. Asif and Amir (England v Pakistan cricket) did time in jail for their no-balls. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could just say I gave them cash and its up to them how they spend it, its dodgy but it could be hard to pin down. Seems as the bets were placed on an accumulator with another player based from Rio De Janeiro called Luiz Henrique that plays for Betis that also picked up a yellow card in the 89th minute for complaining the same day. He was dropped from the U23 national team because of the same reason. Both players also picked up a yellow on May 21 against Leeds and Sevilla respectively… Unless both were threatened with having their families kidnapped and killed (which would be the only half logical thing although more likely they thought because the bets were placed in Brazil they would be fine…), they will both be banned from football. In Brazil there has been similar cases lately with 2 years ban from football given and I think that would be the only fair thing to do although I wouldn’t mind a five year ban for disrespecting the sport.

Wasn’t Xhaka freed a few years ago because they couldn’t prove he was involved in a max bet placed on him getting a yellow in the last 10minutes (which he got for complaining to ref)?

kingxlnc Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 In Asif and Amir Pakistan lost their two front line opening pace bowlers in their peaks, both of whom had the potential to be best in the world. Many cricketers even today say Asif was one of the most difficult bowlers they ever faced and yet he had a frightfully short career as this scandal pretty much ended his career. Amir was only 17 at the time so although he made a comeback years and years later I believe he was never the same. So there was a huge punishment for it. I fear for Paqueta as he’s just entering his peak and was on the cusp of one of the biggest moves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
