Rogers is now planning to sue the manager in question and says he will be “throwing the book at him” for damages.

  • The manager in question gambled £879,000 over a two-year period, with losses of £270,000.
  • A judge had to intervene after the manager offered match tickets to the detective leading the investigation.
  • The manager had up to eight betting accounts and his gambling, ranging from £5 to £400, included a “handful” of bets related to football. It is prohibited in football for anybody to bet on their own sport.
