Did i say that I just reiterated that he had been found guilty of it and, by the sound of that article, it was the end of his football career. I do not go into his history in minutiae but only know of what made headlines.

Suggest you read the article next time before posting something so serious about our manager, given that JB wasn't charged or convicted of any match fixing offences.

What i did was to look up why he had been gaoled as i made a mistake and owned it, apologised and then posted that he has been banned for 18 months for another charge but if you enjoy putting you unique spin it then God bless you as you surely need it. I think my and your idea of fun would be incredibly different.

I did not realise you were a silk Topper, you do make me laugh though. I dread to think what it takes for you to believe you can sit in judgement on others and to such a degree that you believe you talk for others too. What a star you are

I think my and your idea of fun would be incredibly different. But he was neither jailed, nor found guilty of match fixing. He was never banned for match fixing either. What he was banned for was betting on football matches. Some of the games he was found to have bet on were on his own team where he had bet for his own team to lose.

Yes, i did read it and my only reason to post out was, in the main, to correct myself.

You corrected your mistake of saying he was jailed for match fixing buy saying he was banned for match fixing. He was never found guilty of match fixing and has never been punished for match fixing.

Once again, i put the piece up to clarify what had actually happened and not what i thought had happened.

I think it was more of a betting addiction, I don't think he was betting large sums of money (relative to football wages etc), he wasn't whacking a big wedge on the outcome of a game which he could influence. Still against the rules though, I can't believe that Brentford lad has ruined his career, but I guess it is difficult when it becomes an addiction.

Surely if anyone has an addiction and isn't trying to influence the outcome of games, treatment and help is required and not punishment? 🤷🏻♂️

He's on a roll at the moment then.

The funny thing is the last 4 bets were to win. Hey ho that is football for you. Always the proverbial spanner on the touch line or the middle of the park ready to cock things up!

Joey knew Peter Kay from the Sporting Chance clinic and had previously been treated there and looks like he got help from them independently, although I can't be sure of that. He was certainly punished though with the ban effectively ending his playing career. Looks like Ivan Toney could be punished severely if found guilty and career disrupted for his addiction. Sad.

You only get help if you manage to recognise the problem and reach out, maybe he would not have been banned had he have taken this course of action, i agree by the way
