Apparently the match in question is believed to be Norwich v. Derby County, won by the visitors 2-1.  Lots of betting on the result during the second half from Asia.  Now being reviewed by the FA and the Gambling Commission. 

I think Derby were 1-0 up at half time so if it was an attempt at match fixing then it didn't work.

It could have been fixed so that derby win 2-1. Which they did.

BR, if that was the case all the betting would have been pre-game (when all score permutations were still available e.g. 0-0. 1-0, 2-0 etc), not at half time and the second half as was the case.

Was Cureton involved!?
If so...throw the book at em!
He should also be investigated for that miss against Yeovil.....that was dodgy!

Roy Carroll got sent off giving away a penalty ... and Marshall the Norwich keeper ran out of his goal area and allowed Derby to score the winner .. making no attempt to save it at all

Wasn't this shortly after the year-long period when Derby "couldn't buy a win"? Ahem

Watford v Reading should be investigated too, especially that linesman's "forst goalscorer" betting habits!

Can we get Sir Martin Arbib to fix some of our games?

We'd likely still cock it up and lose.

Promotion season, last game us vs Warsaw at the CG was definitely a fix.

Nah, they nearly lost that. Good goal as well

Fixes, Swindon Vs Hartlepool last day of our promotion season, now that was a fix.

ummm, we didn't play Hartlepool on the last day of our promotion season.

I think he means play off season, but you know DV doesn't get football things wrong.

I meant play off season....

d'oh

Bristol City v Coventry all those years back..needed a draw for both teams to stay up - result =  a draw!

West Ham at Old Trafford........sorry......i dont believe that wasnt fixed.


Having seen us play this season, maybe the win at MK was a fix!!? :nod:

Theres fixing going on every week...in a minor way,you can bet on throwins etc...its amazing how many teams punt the ball out from the kick,off....als on red and yellow cards,refs have got to be getting abit of that action!

In play betting, Norwich equalise, bet on Derby to win with minutes to go and you'd get some nice odds on that.

According to reports 3 more games are under investigation...

Precisely. what happened was Derby lose Roy Carroll and concede the penalty and then heaps and heaps of money is stuck on Derby in Asia.

Although it was horse racing,there was a recent scandal where a Chinese betting syndicate,delayed the
live Tv broadcast by 3 mins and were able to place bets,already knowing the results.
