I agree to some extent, especially if he’s not necessarily betting on anything he’s involved with but I understand why the rules are there in the first place.
The rules have always been clear as well so it’s how own fault really.

Having said that Brightons chairman won £880,000 plus during Cheltenham week using the type of data they use at his football club for scouting players amongst other things…
He bet on his own team to lose thou

Fair play
I don’t get the outage like unless I’m missing something
Wouldn’t bother me in the slightest if Jack Clarke was betting on the footy this season
The argument is that
If he could bet on matches he was involved in then he could spot fix
If he could bet on his own team when injured then could encourage it, or even profit from inside info
If he’d just left a team and had mates there…
It’s easier to blanket ban it. See also Amir, Cronje Gibbs and the like

Have you read the charges? He's bet on himself to score and his club he's employed with to lose etc.
Hes been betting on his own games. Not just on random football matches.
Bloody hell, that’s shocking. 8 months isn’t long enough

Yeah I guess when you put it like that, but I guess what I mean is I’m seeing a lot of moral outrage towards it. I don’t get that. I’m not being deliberately contradictory here either just being honest
He’s been brilliant for Brentford so if I was their fan I wouldn’t be outraged personally
Said he wasn’t playing in them like

He bet on himself to score. Was he not playing then either?

I have no sympathy really. They’re all aware there is a blanket ban, and the reasons for it
How far does it go down the pyramid of leagues when it comes to not being allowed to gamble on football matches?

If betting where you have an impact reap whirlwind
If its clydebank vs falkirk who gives a shit

What about if your ex team mate plays for Falkirk?
It’s a minefield, hence the blanket ban

But then you have to track all personal relationships, which is virtually impossible
