Topic: The Daniel Sturridge

[LovelyCushionedHeader]

I stand corrected. 

Bookies are parasites and I doubt they took much money on this. It's a ridiculous market anyway. There's numerous people involved in a transfer that could pass on info.

It’s not just that, but when odds tumble on such a market the bookies always advertise it to attract more people, on the premise that such a drop must be because of inside knowledge. In actual fact, such a drop should be reported to the authorities rather than the punters as something apparently illegal has gone on.

What if his missus has told someone - would be be in the shit for telling his wife.

“Pack your bags, we’re moving”
“Where?”
“Can’t tell you, sorry”

[Johnny Foreigner]

I used to work for a listed company. When we worked on larger projects we were put on "insider"-lists which meant we couldn't trade shares; and that including relatives; we couldn't tell anything they could act on..

when we presented  quarterly results; we were also suspended from trading - and that meant we physically had to sign a document that we had read, understood and agreed on our liabilities..

If the FA wants to hang sturridge out to dry on some mambo-jambo court, with no formal procedures etc - the club should get right behind and challenge  the FA

Ouch!!! That guys has wagered a chunk of his savings on a losing bet that he probably thought was a sure thing.

Aside from that, nothing to see here

[Dim Glas]

So basically someone has grassed him up cos he's lost his savings putting on a dud bet?

 

[WhereAngelsPlay]

Not a damn thing.

Given the spectacular failure of the bet, there is no suggestion that Sturridge was involved

[B0151?]

It seems wrong that they besmirch Sturridge's name like this if this is what their investigation is based around. What is the purpose in making it public?

United/Everton fans exist, that’s why

We are cheats. Dock us points

Yeah, for sturridges mate betting on him going to WBA. That’s basically helped us to 2nd in table

The article states that it may not be that bet which has caused the charge. So it may be winning bets on his West Brom move which caused the inquiry.
Bookies are always happy when some poor dope loses his life savings, but when they lose a few quid someone must be called to task.

[GucciMane]

Sturridge should do a dice celebration for his next goal. Fuck bookies the evil c*nts.

[GucciMane]

Would be livid and disillusioned with football if this is like the Sakho thing and he isnt proven in the wrong. Always fucking shit popping up when we are doing excellent on thw pitch. Why not finish your investigation and then take action. Fuck the FA and UEFA with their clear baised against Liverpool.

[deFacto please, you bastards]

Fucking hell, if this harms the team then they don't deserve to be fighting for the major trophies.

This is such a ridiculous non story.

Some random fella stakes ten grand on a move to inter. If the bookies were that worried about inside info - just refuse the bet or put a cap on it. The reason why they didn't is either greed or they were safe in the knowledge that if the bet won, they could make a case for the bet being based on inside knowledge. Cake and eat it. Wankers.

[classycarra]

Which bit? He's right about the investigation. It cost Sakho a final appearance, and contributed to us missing out on a trophy. Only to find out that they had handled things incorrectly, legally.

we got a guy suspended until further notice in our biggest game since Athens and had to play Uncle Kolo who was a great guy but passed his best. You dont even feel a little salty/mad about it? Especially when Sakho was so dominant against Utd at OT etc. Suarez against Evra was another one JT and others have done it but no one ever heard them. Why always Liverpool ?

Agree with that, we've had our fair share over the years. Sakho, who knows, he could have equally fucked up in the final, but agree that was a disgrace the way it was handled. Mascherano was the one that got me.

I just feel that this is a bit of a non story, it's so far fetched. But if we do see Sturridge receive any sort of punishment that goes beyond a slap on the wrists then we need to be more aggressive.
I've been saying for years that as a club we bend over too readily. Hopefully now that we've improved all aspects of the club, we'll make it less easy to be singled out by the authorities.

whats the Mascherano one?

anyway cant really compare sakho and sturridge. betting and alleged drugs misuse aren't comparable here

i dont think sturridge will be banned

just with Sakho, did we not take a decision to leave him out whilst he was being investigated?

Mascherano got that red at Old Trafford for losing it with the werewolf ref Steve Bennett as part of the ‘clampdown’ on behaviour, was it the Respect camapign. Felt at the time that he was an easy target and in the weeks before and after the usual suspects like Rooney and Terry got away with far more aggressive reactions to the ref.

Was quite funny seeing Rafa do some Crocodile Dundee shit on Masch in the touchline to calm him down though!

yeah i remember now.

We didn't lose the final because of Sakho not playing, he wasnt and isn't Paolo Maldini. If Sakho had done what he was supposed to do [ie consult with the clubs doctors to begin with] he wouldn't have taken what he did regardless of how it's handled.

There isn't no conspiracy against us, there are however poorly ran organizations and corrupt bastards, but that has feck all to do it being against us.

Never said there was a conspiracy.

Also never said we lost because he wasn't playing.

Don't disagree that the way to mitigate it is not to use the substance.

Worth remembering we lost the final because of our defending down the left though. And Sakho was a lot better than Kolo.

My only point was that you should have an understanding of a legal basis, and precedent in international sports, before you sully someone's name and prematurely end their season. I think it's a reasonable point. You don't announce someone's guilt first, then work backwards from there

The FA have done this to other players so it's not a Liverpool related incident [I didn't say you were saying it's a conspiracy but the bloke who posted suggested it was hence why I said I hope you're fishing]

The FA did this with Bobby last year and with Jay Rodriguez

And I remember clearly everyone losing their shit on here when Firmino was being investigated because  some were convinced he was going to be punished no matter what

These are all good examples of how terrible the FA are with these issues. And how their announcements of investigations, implying guilt, are problematic. i don't think there's an anti Liverpool bias here, but do still think it's something they need to improve. So I think we agree on everything ha

going off point perhaps but Kolo was superb in that final

whole rest of the team looked poor, leggy and tired though

If you're charged with a crime it shouldn't imply you're guilty. That's a media and societal issue, not an FA one.

Aye

Not that I'm obsessive about that sort of thing, but I remember Ashley Cole specifically doing much worse in the midweek before where Steve Bennett was the 4th official and got nothing.

We tend to agree on most things haha 

[classycarra]

And yet he was wrongfully suspended during the end of the season, including the final. I don’t think you can seriously blame the media and society for that can you

We tend to agree on most things haha 

Indeed even if it sometimes seems like the opposite for a minute ha 

[LallanaInPyjamas]

Who? Sakho? I'm not sure how you can blame the FA either. It was a UEFA matter.

[FlashGordon]

Nothing to be done about SSN running stories on players moving clubs all day and the clear link they would have to Sky Bet though. Oh no, nothing to see there, move along sir.

Uncle Kolo who'd been banned for taking a slimming substitute? Maybe Sakho could have asked his team mate never mind the club doctor before doing something stupid.

Anyway some of the comments on here (not just yours) are starting to mirror those from Everton fans about Niasse being the only player banned retrospectively for diving, Everton being the only club punished for tapping up (Silva), Everton the only club punished for tapping up Academy players.

Exactly my point. Fully agree

[Qston]

Fuck the bookies

[Barneylfc∗]

Terry got a ban aswell. Was only 4 games but a bigger fine if I recall. I believe the reasoning was that Suarez used his term multiple times, but Terry only used his once. I don't see that as bias against Liverpool, just incompetence.

dont really know about thr semantics of the whole fiasco but it was a joke on all parts even the club with their T-shirts iirc.

and there are loads outside of our club who think our Suarez t-shirts was ridiculous as well

I remember that, especially when they were all in a huddle and then up popped a smiling Glen Johnson.
