we8wba 0 Posted October 12, 2008 what makes it more intresting is you''d rather slate me than notice the fact your club could have been involved in a fixed match.if you read the forum apprerently (i cant confirm as didnt witness it) alot of money went on to your match at half time.now apperently if this was the game it would have backfired as derby eventually won the game! im not saying if it was this game that norwich are in any way connected but its intresting that the f.a are investigating the situation.

alex_ncfc 643 Posted October 12, 2008 This all sounds extremely dodgy, and a bit worrying that a lot of people on that betfair forum seem to be suggesting it could well be the Norwich game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

North Sea Canary 0 Posted October 12, 2008 I can''t understand why this is not at the top of the forum. Looking at the betting patterns it seems allegedly that the opponents keeper got himself sent off to throw the match and reverse the half time score from an away win to a home win. However he did not take into account how woeful the current Norwich squad is. Even at home against a side down to 10 men and with a penalty he has given to us, Norwich manage to lose the match!

Blofield Canary 11 Posted October 12, 2008 Just shows how low we have sunk. Not the fact we are possibly involved in match fixing. It''s the fact we lost a match that the opposition and probably the referre were trying to let us win!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SWP = Poor Mans Ruel Fox!! 0 Posted October 12, 2008 Oh come on the whole of the opposition and the referee wouldnt have been fixing the match, it is normally just one (key) player.And we havent sunk that low, did we not also lose the match that Grobelaar was trying to (allegedly) throw all those years ago? Not much change then really is it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BIC 0 Posted October 12, 2008 Funnily enough I posted this late last night on a different thread:what with the amount of betting money riding on games worldwide....http://footballisfixed.blogspot.com/It''s simple economics. Literally billions are bet on games around the world. That means that bookees and gambler stand to make or lose a lot of money if results go against them. Given that gambling in most parts of the world is one of the most corrupt industries in existence, why is it so hard to believe that people are trying to influence results? It stands to reason. Especially when there are so many ways of tipping the scales in your favour....Referees, linos, players.Football is dirty and I''m sure there are plenty of Grobelaars out there. In fact on the blog I mention, they have a penchant for slating Michael Owen on a regular basis. Perhaps its just a coincidence, but he certainly spends a lot of time moving in gambling circles and he''s not exactly the only player to do that.....

lucky green trainers 0 Posted October 12, 2008 yeah right, loadsa punters bet on city to overturn a 1-0 deficit (with alleged insight that derby would be down to 10 men) they only had to look at the form guide to see city failed to score against 10 men qpr 10 days earlier!!! lol...imo, this is a load of punters with sour grapes cos their selections went down./, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCFC_Thain 0 Posted October 12, 2008 "Traders for British firm Spreadex noticed "a massive movement at aroundhalf-time". An expert, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said hehad "not seen anything like this in 10 years of working in theindustry" and expressed concern for "the integrity of the English game".Inthe Asian gambling market it is common to place a handicap on one ofthe teams. In this case the handicap made an enormous, unexplainedswing that would indicate a major on-field event when nothing of thatnature had occurred. However, later in the match a major on-field eventdid occur.After investigating what our source described as"strange patterns" in betting, The Sunday Telegraph sent a document tothe FA and the Gambling Commission on Friday. An FA spokesman said: "Wewill consider any evidence which is brought to our attention. We arecommitted to thoroughly investigate any allegations of this nature."TheFA and the Gambling Commission do not have jurisdiction in the case ofoverseas bookmakers but do have to uphold the integrity of the game.The enormous financial power of the Asian gambling industry has longbeen a concern to regulators in this country.The twoPhilippines-based bookmakers on which the swing was detected are SBOBETand IBCBET. There is no suggestion of impropriety on their part. Bothbookmakers declined to comment." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hog 0 Posted October 12, 2008 From what Fingers has said the Norwich game looks to be the one to me. If the odds during half time were as he indicated then it''s got to be. Obviously if it was the one, the plan went wrong. As with any fixing tho it was always going to be far from guaranteeed. giving away a pen and having a player sent off would be enough to make Norwich strong favourites but not guaranteed to win. If it was the game the people betting on it forgot one important thing. Norwich are appalling. From the betting forum, sad but true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
