scarkev 3,540 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Wonder whether this will lead to a whole bunch of 'grassing' now. Pretty sure a lot of players could be in trouble,mid only the SFA had the stones to actually punish ALL who had gambledThey really could be opening up a can of worms with this.....Will be interesting to see how it all transpires....I dont believe for a minute Black is the only player to have done this.

islandblue 366 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Before we condem or support Black we need to know all the facts. The notice of complaint alleges on 3 occasions he has bet against his registered club. He is now what 25 or thereabouts so as the allegations go back to 2006 he may have been only 18 at the time and nowhere near the first team. If for instance he was a youth team player at Inverness and bet against the first team losing to Rangers at Ibrox then yes it's a breach of the rules but hardly serious. My point is before we reach a conclusion lets wait on the facts and as has been posted earlier I wonder who has leaked this from Ladbrokes though I don't wonder why the allegations leaked relate to a Rangers player Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoorie 1,088 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 He might be the only one fucking stupid enough to back against results he had an influence on. No we're not. Some fucknugget at the bookies has leaked details, that's hardly a concerted attack on the club, just an idiot that plays for us.I'll get pelters for this, but we ARE under attack again.Listened to BBC since six and they spent the first half hour on three bad news stories, with not a shred of proof. Lots of punishments and sanctions and questions of, " but is that enough ? "Bile and hatred spewing out of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayro 2,999 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Not condoning being fucking stupid but should the SFA be naming him?Even if innocent he is gonna get a shitload of abuse and the smear against his name.Typical, thought he started the season well and was looking more like the player we thought we were getting last season Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
will_1974 204 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Bizarre when you think about the betting culture of footballers and he is singled out. 1/7 of the time he has been gambling has been spent at Rangers. Guessing there must be a bit more to this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's out of order and could raise questions about his conduct but at worst I'd imagine it will be a fine.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye he's played well this season in the first few games, but his behavior last season was a disgrace. I never wanted him anywhere near my club in the first place. I think we will do a Sandaza on him if he turns out guilty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
