Ivan Toney

Well, it's not like he plays for City. If he did he would be crucified at the gates.

He doesn't have to play for us. There are more comments from fans of the usual suspects about what ban we'll get for cheating than there are about him.
 
They’ve not released details yet but I’d be amazed if there was any suggestion that he was trying to influence the outcome of any of his bets. Or the ban would have been much longer.

He was a lower league player for the majority of the time frame. Not an excuse. He knew the rules. But probably just sat at home, bored on a Sunday, having a bet on whatever games were on TV.
I'm sure they've previously stated that he didn't bet on or against any of the teams he played for.
 
SIMPLE if you are found guilty of betting on games then it should be all over with any involvement in the game,

an 8 months ban does nothing as a deterrent in the future for players wanting to gamble, it's only seen as a slap on the hands by some age permitted, he's only 27 and will have good 4 or 5 years in the game
I'm not sure an 8 month ban from all football related involvement 'does nothing'. He'll only be allowed to start training at the club from September and not allowed to play until mid January. This will be from any club worldwide BTW.
