Title: Match Fixing in the Championship
Post by: michael on Sunday, October 12, 2008, 19:34:02
I have two links for you:

and

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/3180533/Football-Association-probe-match-fixing-claim.html

There's no mention of which game it was, and no steer as to whether it's suggested it was the clubs or the officials who may have been being naughty.

Big comebacks I can think of recently are Bristol City coming back from 2-0 down to draw with Plymouth, and 10-man Barnsley being 1 down and yet beating Doncaster 4-1. Any others?

Got a feeling it was in a match last season Michael.

Plymouth have Japanese investors, and the bets were made in Asia, so could well be them.
