Betting fraud

Post by Arcadian »

Matt Le Tissier has just brought out his autobiography and claims to have been part of a betting scam. The idea was to bet that the first throw in would be before 75 seconds (I think). At the kick off he wellied the ball towards touch but mis kicked and the winger stopped the ball going out of play. Hardly throwing a game I suppose but not what you would have expected from him.

I remember betting on who the first throw in or corners were for too. So that would have been an easy one for players to 'indulge' in!!
