What a thick twat, not only to try to execute the fraud as if he was playing like Ali Dia, but to even admit to it. Hmm conspiracy to defraud!

I wonder if "staggering incompetence" is a legally recognised defence

Didn't they have a similar thing around 10 ago when West Ham deliberately kicked the ball into touch from kick off as they had a few quid on the first throw-in in the first few seconds ?

Rings a bell. Loads of far Eastern bets raised suspicions. These days Le Tissier reminds me of a poor man's Phil Tufnell.

Whenever I go we always seem to punt the ball straight out of play.

Whilst we can all have a laugh at him fucking it up, its not actually funny is it? Its match fixing, end of.
It makes it worse that he thinks its funny, that he didn't do anything wrong and that he has made some more money out of it by selling the story to a paper.

No, because the result of the game would not be altered by hoofing it out in the first 30 seconds. Whether it is conspiracy to defraud is another matter, I'm no lawyer. Bit stupid to admit to it though.

It's bet rigging, not match fixing - still sets a dodgy precedent though.

What's the difference? Whether it is conceding a throw in or conceding a goal its the same thing. I've always liked him but I really hope Sky sack him or suspend him for 12 months or something. He obviously thinks its funny and not an issue, what kind of example does that set to other players and kids? Hopefully the police will be investigating it with a view to charging him with fraud or whatever it is.
