Oh dear

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/26515814

In no position to get himself into hot water with the FA methinks.

This must be the first player done in the Prem.
Anybody know what rule E8(b) is?

 

[Toon_Demon]

The BBC article has a link to the relevant rules mountie. Think the general gist is you're not allowed to bet on games in which you are personally participating, or have any influence over.

Influence? He's had zero influence for us.

You have to be thick as fuck to bet in the sport you play in.

Wonder if he posts on here?

Well done Mike and Parsnip, more shame heaped on the club.....

Could not make this up.....

 

[Kim Jong Un]

I very much doubt they knew, DLG. This, cannot be their fault.

You're average football player has an IQ about same as the keyboard you are typing on.

He's shit anyway, hardly going to be a massive loss if he gets suspended!

A chance for Ashley to fine him two weeks wages and save some more money.

 

[officemonkey]

Whey hey, the comma kid is back.

 

[taffontyne]

Vin, this could go beyond a fine, depending on the seriousness of it - going by that rule.

 

[Toon_NoMatterWot]

Im not accusing anyone of anything but Gosling betting on behalf of Pardew or Ashley would makes sense to some.

 

[Chief_Brody]

If he's bet on one of our games theyll hammer him....could be an excuse to sack him too

 

[Kim Jong Un]

Think they'd have to keep him, otherwise we'd fail on the requirement for registered English players?

 

[tynebridges]

Maybe he bet on Pardew getting a red card v Hull? Could they both be in it? Possibly, maybe.

 

[Bruce68]

Gosling is like a new signing.

 

[Toon_NoMatterWot]

Seems it was an innocent but still against the rules, betting spree.

He apparently bet on football accumulators and thought that if he didn't choose us or Blackpool, that he would be fine. Personally I see no problem but if it's not allowed then what can you do?

 

[officemonkey]

They should be able to bet on who the fuck they like. Why do footballers need to bet though with the money they're on?!
