www.skysports.com/football/news/11764/11638494/barry-fry-resigns-as-peterborough-director-after-accepting-betting-chargeThis is hilarious: Fry told the FA disciplinary hearing these bets were not for personal gain but were to cover bonus payments for which the club was liable. As it happened, Marriott, now scoring goals for Derby County, did finish as League One's top scorer and Fry covered his £25,000 bonus with that £500 each-way bet he placed in a Coral bookmakers in Bedford. The £4,000 of club cash he wagered on Peterborough to go up, however, did not come off, as Posh finished ninth, but equally there was no need to pay the players any bonuses.

Brilliant idea.
All Wael has to do is put £50 on the club ever building a new stadium. At odds of 1,000,000-1, that covers the cost.
Boom!
Have I missed anything here?

I'd imagine there are so many irregular bets placed in sport, obviously I have no evidence to support this but it must be quite easy to do, via friends and family etc.... Which makes fry look like the biggest clown in town walking into a betting shop and placing 500 quid....
Guilty of stupidity as much as corruption....

How did P'boro managed to avoid any action being taken against them as well, as I assume they were, or would have been, the main beneficiaries of the bets rather than Fry personally?
