Well well well, who would have guessed that World Cup draws are fixed - surely this can't be the case. Someone will tell me next that CL, FA Cup draws etc can't possibly be fixed and that the premier league fixtures are random. It's just a coincidence that big games are selected for the same weekend, pure coincidence

Now the powers that be are bringing in dark magic to control the ball and influence match outcomes!

When will the corruption stop!?

Italy
Germany
And now Ukraine.

But EPL is pure as the driven snow....

of course it didn't implicate the big 2...much like if it broke here it would happen not to include the Rags or dippers, but every paper would state "Manchester City also...implicated".

Anthony Taylor to be called up ?

By Clattenburg to replace his star official? Possibly.

When did Bet365 start employing Uri Geller?

Same league as our very own Wiggy. That's what his role is. Telling them how not to get caught.

A lot of talk on here about no proof, speculation etc but often circumstantial evidence (when repeatedly offered regarding the same offender) is damning. Further more in the case of someone like Mike Dean there is additional solid proof as well. His performance on Sunday in the game against Huddersfield was one of the poorest we've had this season and there have been many.
Let's look at what we have on Dean and what can/can't be proven.
