Ian Pethick Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 Just noticed this story, surprised it hasn't been talked about on here. The alleged offences cover a period when Ryan Brett, Ed Palmer and Shane White were Taunton Town and then Truro City players. https://www.cornwalllive.com/news/cornwall-news/three-truro-city-footballers-investigated-6508029 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and Plymouth Live, awful websites. Very serious allegations though, do we know if the players have responded or if any investigation has found no wrong doing?

Footy follower Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 How is this even an offence at their level...... Unless obviously involving their own team. I'd be surprised if at least 50% of local footballers don't have a bet on football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Deacon Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 Presumably one must be able to bet on Southern League matches while perhaps not SWPL. Any betting people reading this who can confirm either way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsman10 Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 I read Taunton had an issue with a player as well. Seem to suggest it was wide spread through out the league etc and a lot of it the players not really understanding it’s not aloud. it’s prob just players having a few bets on the footy prem etc. talked about it online etc and the fa have come down hard. Honestly think it’s completely over the top I mean I hardly look for Truro etc when I place a bet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Deacon Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 It seems that FA rules are that you can't bet on matches that are in competitions you play in. Technically at least , if you played in FA Cup extra preliminary round in August you shouldn't bet on the final! The FA charges though are likely to be for betting on outcomes that they had a vested interest in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devils@Dusk Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 This is weeks old (it was in the West Briton). Couldn't they have said, "Three Players Investigated for Alleged Football Betting Offences". But, no. They had to drag City's name through the mud too. Then again, the WB is Pro-Falmouth these days... 😒 Town Fan and mattelot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather not know the news than subject myself to that every day! Town Fan, Dave Deacon, TheolderIgetthebetterIwas and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
