Fuck off

 

Wayne Shaw agrees to leave Sutton Utd after investigations are opened into his pie eating during the club's game against Arsenal.

The reserve goalkeeper admitted he knew Sun Bets were offering 8-1 odds on him eating the pastry prompting the Gambling Commission and the Football Association to look into whether the incident broke any rules.

Sutton United manager Paul Doswell told Sky News he had asked Shaw to leave the club and he had agreed.

Nicknamed the 'Roly Poly Goalie' because of his 20st weight, 46-year-old Shaw was also employed as part of the coaching team.

Was there really anyone in the whole of Britain or any institution who could possibly have been offended or felt victimised by that ?

Guy was just having a laugh at his own expense, and letting others have a laugh in the process whilst helping publicise his team, the FA cup and the Bookies themselves in a friendly way. Win, win all round.

Bookies should be making a big effort to sort it out. What the fuck is wrong in this country ?

He admitted that he knew about the odds and that a "few of the boys" had bet on it so admittedly it looks a bit shady but ridiculous that he's lost his job through it.

Ridiculous only comes in when bookies (scum of the earth) create stupid unprofessional bets then get the knock when someone out maneuvers them in the taking the piss stakes. It should be a two way thing.

I'm sure they were going to be quite happy taking the money if ithe pie eating did not happen.

And as for the "Gambling Commision" getting involved, who actually are they ? An "independent" organisation endorsed by a civil service and government which has a total self interest in providing maximium revenue to the government and protecting their interests in gambling taxes from mugs who have been taken advantage of..

Bit like the SFA being allowed to run Scottish football, or Glasgow Council allocating funding on an equal basis to Glaswegian football clubs.....

Slightly off topic, but pie eating and football are synonomous, both having a great  mutual tradition going back many year. 

The Stanley Baxter'esque phrase "Erzyirpiehanbovrul" evokes a whole experience to me of high expectation followed by a warm cosy feeling at football matches on freezing cold misty dismal dank sodden Saturday afternoons and Wednesday nights at various football parks throughout the country, (albeit with sometimes severe repercussions a few hours later.).

Worst ever was the one time I attended a cellic Rangers game at the Rangers end of cellic park's mid terrace, rather than the traditional Rangers end.

The pie serving area was just underneath what was technically part of the "jungle" and right next to the pies and bovril were big troughs which transported the toilet piss from the user end out through pipes at the back.

I can still almost taste that heady aroma of bovril. congealed mutton fat and piss after all these years...........the joys of being a fan in the seventies.
