Ivan Toney


His gambling didn't lead to him being banned. All about horses with him not football.
That's not entirely true. He once bet on a Newcastle game he played in against Stoke in the league cup and lost thousands because he bet on them not to win by more than three goals. They won 4-0.

Aye, fair enough, he was never found guilty and mostly lost money on horses.

Trippier's was daft. Tipping off mates about your upcoming transfer is just idiotic.
 
Him and thicky Micky Chopra down the bookies eh.

Always thought Ivan Toney sounded like a rather rubbish ice cream parlour.

Disagree there mind. He's telling his mates what his new job is, I tell mine when i've got a job interview/been offered. Pretty standard stuff.

It's not his fault that the bookies take bets on such stupid, easy to manipulate markets, which are frankly NOT sport. Bookies offer these odds on stupid things then cry foul when somebody makes a couple of quid off it.

Same goes that it isn't his fault that the FA/governing bodies are so scared of the bookies that they didn't back him.

Remember this? Bookies were happy enough to play along then.
 
No. Darren Peacock did. Gillespie looked gutted even though his team had scored.
Would have been funny if they'd had a Bowyer/Dyer set to over it in the middle of the pitch. Try explaining that one. Mind you I think Peacock might have a had a slight reach advantage in that scrap
