LaticsPete Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I think they should broaden the rule further. Any professional footballer or football club employee should not be allowed to get on any football. It's a balancing act...:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitey1980 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) I think they should broaden the rule further. Any professional footballer or football club employee should not be allowed to bet on any football. Totally agree with this. Games at all levels in this and many countries in Europe have been affected by match and spot fixing scandals. It is plainly a massive threat to the integrity of the game and players should be nowhere near it. Players and management gambling on other teams is dangerous as it is clearly often done on privileged information that is not in the public domain. If people in the game are so readily passing information about their club and teams - what else will they do? Their integrity is questionable - and that just might kill football at this level. Sounds dramatic, but we all attend games in the hope we are watching a sporting contest. If we are not, why bother?

rudemedic Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 The rule does seem very broad. For instance if I read it correctly nobody who has played or managed in a FA Cup tie , even a qualifying round , can have a bet on the final. It's even broader than that. No employee of any club to have played in the FA cup can have a bet on any FA cup game. The same applies for the League cup, the JPT and the respective league divisions.

Roger Ritchie Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 His defence is that he was unaware of the rule. I'm not involved in football and I am aware of a rule there. Surely someone who has been around as much football as he has would have at least heard about such a rule? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disjointed Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Ronnie's a character, I would never describe him as a :censored:. The game is short on characters, without the Ronnie Moore types it becomes a bit flat sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OAFC_Ryan Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Ian Thomas Moore @ianthomasmoore 33m For the record: £1100 was his outlay of bets in three years, he won £900! Not one was on Tranmere to lose, it's a family account. FACT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latics_Fanatic Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I'll echo what others have said, someone losing their job isn't something to celebrate. Not exactly gutted for him, but it's a shame that the "rivalry" against him as such has now gone. A scuppered reputation and now it's unlikely that he'll manage again - would anyone touch him with a barge pole? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeslover Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Does that mean Ian Moore may have been in breach of betting rules in the past too then? The urge to say something about his mother is both strong and wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
