So good

Three A league players have been charged!

People bet on exotics, for example, who gets a yellow card and when in a game.

The players saw this is as easy money and rightly so.

A yellow card is just a warning. You need two to get sent off.

It’s easy to push someone over and synthesise a yellow card.

I’ve done it myself, not for financial gain, but because I just wanted to get someone on the other team. It’s a calculated risk,  trying to injure them without getting a red.

And by getting a yellow, you aren’t really bringing disadvantage to your team so long as you’re careful not to get another one.

My view is that they should charge the idiots that create these exotic betting opportunities.

But get this, the charge was “engaging in conduct that corrupts a betting outcome”.

How about charging the betting industry for engaging in corrupt outcomes? They never lose in they long run, after all.
