8 Prem Managers In The Dock

[gillie]

This scandal makes me wonder if Mr Halsey was really telling the truth.

[johnny crossan]

Clueless has just been on SSN and said he has led a completely bung free life and has never been tempted - unlike some others (paraphrase)
Pulis said it's down to the Governing Body to sort it out


the silence of the other welsh lamb continues


So these three Englishmen, three Welshmen and two Scotsmen walk into a bar............

We await the contribution of the League Managers Association, strangely silent so far.

ah - spoke too soon - the next question could be 'how many managers are at it but have not been stung?'

So, the LMA, who represents those that have/are being investigated, demand details of the investigation prior to the police authorities making a decision on whether their us a case to be heard?

Sounds legit!

Ycmtsu. The LMA, who have a vested interest in making this go away, want the evidence before everybody else?

I would not be surprised if Leslie got called up for this one. Would explain the Santa Cruz transfer.

Not in the same League as Vuoso mate. Rocky could play - he was just only fit enough to play about twice.

He's received a brown envelope in return for taking one for 'the team'.

shock horror Dirty Arry

shame it's just a nothing story and he can't be put away for it

[Beefymcfc]

What has to be mentioned is that the majority of info came from one agent who would only have contact with a few managers. Unless all agents/players are going to come forward, we ain't going to see too much in the way of real corruption.

We all have suspicions that it is there, but real hard proof; who's going to throw their livelihood away?

[nottsblue]

So it turns out it was a storm in a teacup. Managers will continue to sign multiple players represented by the same agents and presumably continue to receive "consultancy" fees.

Referees will continue to favour the Sky4.

Pretty much as you were, nothing to see here, move along now

Bruce was a shie-in after his extraction from the Hull job.

Bit surprised at Ole 'Arry

Bryan Riggs, the Family Counsellor; surely not?

if this is really the list there's gonna be a lot of poo circulating in the ether

this is the Eric Black video

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/09 ... y-scandal/

now Eric played under some manager or other at Aberdeen

So, with the 3 ex scum players, Pulis needing a surgical procedure to be removed from the GPC's arse and Moyse being a GPC acolyte - that is most having associations with that utter prick - please let something come out.

Has it been swept under the carpet yet?

and Cheatin' Bob Bradley is?
"Today, we look back at one of the more bizarre moments in the rivalry that made a teen sensation into a star and earned Bob Bradley a nickname among D.C. fans that he has yet to live down. On July 5, 2003, with the game knotted at 2-2 at the end of regulation at steamy RFK Stadium, the then-MetroStars head coach exploited a bizarre loophole in the rules to get an extra field player substituted in.

Bradley swapped goalkeeper Tim Howard and midfielder Mark Lisi, then brought 16-year-old Eddie Gaven off the bench to take Lisi’s spot in the nets. Ten seconds later, when the ball went out of play, Howard returned to goal and Gaven took his spot in midfield, giving the MetroStars a fresh attacker. The teenager then went on to score the winning goal nine minutes into overtime.

The aftermath prompted MLS to strike down the fourth-substitution rule ... and earned Bradley the nickname of “Cheatin’ Bob” in the nation’s capital. Here’s how it went down in the words of Gaven, who’s now wearing Columbus Crew gold for the eighth straight season…

I didn't know what was going on. [Bob] just said, “You're going in via some strange rule and you have to put on the goalie gloves and the goalie jersey first.” Our team was going to try and hit the ball out of bounds then we were going to switch with Tim Howard.

That's exactly what we did, and we ended up getting the ball. They made it very easy for me, very clear that as soon as it goes out, go up with Tim and exchange jerseys and just go out and play.

I think they actually had the kickoff and I was nervous that they were going to shoot it right off the kickoff because they can do that. Then, who knows what would happen after that. Luckily, they didn't. They tried a pass and ended up losing it. Someone on our team hit it out of bounds and we made the change.'

Warnock in the dock. Puncheon's allegations of 'pay me if you wanna play' repeated under privileges of Parliament by Damien Collins. His lawyers have gone viral saying its all lies. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/37679431
