So he told his mate he was going and also told him to bet on it.

Seems like a couple of dumb choices.

Perhaps he should have told his mate that betting on his transfer could get him in serious trouble, instead of "lump on if you want".

Is it an FA rule to recite the terms and conditions of betting on football?

I get what you're saying but it's a very grey area where betting companies can offer more and more markets.

For example, you can bet on bloody pre-season games. If a player tells their family he's finally getting his first senior start in a pre-season game and someone bets on him scoring a goal, is that passing on insider information? For a friendly?

He specifically didn't tell him to bet on it, his mate said he was going to jump on and Trippier said "If you want". The FA acknowledged there was no case to be made for Trippier having told his mate to bet on it.

UEFA team of the year.

Neuer
Kimmich ~ Ramos ~ Van Dijk ~ Davies
Messi ~ Thiago ~ De Bruyne ~ Neymar
Ronaldo ~ Lewandowski​

That team would probably win games 12-8

I would say the way he said it was a wink to do so. If you knew that it’s wrong you would say I’d appreciate if you didn’t mate because that might put me in trouble.

I get what you're saying but the case specifically determined that he didn't instruct his mate to bet, so accusing him of doing that is a bit of a misdirect.

I haven’t read it, only the texts but if my mate sent me that, that’s how i’d interpret it though.

I guess the A-League is the competition to watch for lots of goals. Perth Glory have backed up a 5-3 win over Adelaide United last week with a 5-4 (1-0 at half time) defeat against Western United today. Crazy

My mate at half time said “do you feel like games aren’t as exciting as they used to be?” - 8 goals later...

Steven Gerrard won't be happy

 

[RPCB]

Pepe just threw a major tantrum at full time of Porto‘s league win.... at his own teammate. Shoved him in the chest and then whacked him with two fists. They went to fist bump and his teammate said something which Pepe clearly didn’t agree with.

In other news. The sky is still blue.

Steven Gerrard won't be happy

The ultimate glory hunter, been very quiet on the 49ers front this season

 

[Magma]

no wonder some want the super league so badly.

 

[chef]

What a pity.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Firesale! Daniel bids 50p and a free sky walk for Messi.

 

[moomba]

UEFA should being in some rules to protect clubs from getting into this sort of financial trouble.

FWIW, Barca have been a basketcase since the Laporta days. Might need him back to save the club.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Well I am shocked.

 

[moomba]

Hope West Brom score a goal like that tonight and its ruled out.

Rule will be changed again by next weekend.

IFAB clarified that offside was the correct decision. No rules have been changed like you claim.

The guidance has been changed today, wake up.

Obviously not soon enough for matches involving your team it seems.

Messi and his weekly wage, which according to Google is what De Gea, Pogba and KDB bring home combined, would be happy, though.
