Ivan Toney

I never understand greed in the modern game with players, sounds like it's an organized gang, you can bet haha that others are in this ring, I truly think no one person can fix a football game ? it's impossible unless you're a keeper,

the lad is finished and rightly so
He's not been accused of match fixing or placing bets involving his own team. They're not allowed to bet on anything football related worldwide, so it could even be something as innocuous as betting on the outcome of games in the Danish 2nd division! He's likely facing a ban of some sort but I seriously doubt he'll be finished.
 
I hope its only a minor breach and not anything really serious.

I wonder if Southgate was given a 'head-up' about this though and hence didn't select him for next the WC?

Southgate definitely knew, it was in the national press a couple of weeks ago and Toney released a statement about it at saying he was helping the FA with their enquiries.

Have you seen the Netflix doc about the Juve match fixing scandal. Defo recommend it and it clearly shows how the game is corrupt. Definitely about improving chances of a desired outcome based on multiple factors. Having the refs on the payroll helped.

I always think that the sheer volume of money sloshing round the Premier League means corruption is not only inevitable but it would actually be harder to believe there is no corruption than the picture we are conditioned expected to believe
It would be the only ‘clean’ multi-billion pound industry on the planet
Sadly City and brown people have been made the fall guys when anyone with half a brain knows who the likely culprits are

Rather than the modern game, it’s human nature. Can be seen throughout history in different facets of life. Like death, one thing that can’t be escaped.

Imagine how easy it would be to control games if you had a third party reviewing goals without any regulation or transparency. Oh wait….
 
Seems to split opinion - some think he’s great, but others would tell you he’s terrible
Okay; he's no Messi. But he's no Lee Bradbury either. You don't get 10 goals in 14 PL games so far this season if you're terrible. Has he been fortunate? I don't know; maybe, maybe not. But there is a degree of skill there. It's said to be the most difficult thing in football, scoring goals.

You are right, Ivan isnt terrible. Must be Ivan the great.
