BakerLCFC Posted 17 May 2023 Share Posted 17 May 2023 Just done a quick calculatiom and if he had been banned from the start of this current season for 8 months and you just take away his goals and assists, Brentford would be 21pts worse off. Would now be on 32pts instead of 53pts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another striker would still have scored and assisted (albeit fewer) goals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AKCJ Posted 17 May 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 17 May 2023 8 months is ****ing lunacy from the FA. No chance one of the FA's darlings gets that. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_horns Posted 17 May 2023 Share Posted 17 May 2023 (edited) Guess it’s 5 months playing time though and it was 262 charges which he admitted. The big question is why did it take so long to be all sorted ? Edited 17 May 2023 by Super_horns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lionator Posted 17 May 2023 Share Posted 17 May 2023 Was he gambling on games that he was involved in? If not I think it’s very harsh given the footing that the gambling industry has in sport. Hypocritical even. Ban gambling not gamblers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StonyFox Posted 17 May 2023 Share Posted 17 May 2023 I think 8 months is a bit hypocritical from an organisation that gets so much money from betting companies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox92 Posted 17 May 2023 Share Posted 17 May 2023 8 month from now seems pointless considering the season is ending soon. Should be 8 months from the start of next season. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football's relationship with the gambling industry is obscene. Journos like Phillip Auclair and Colin Millar been going big on this for ages, but as we know if there is big money involved, then football just turns a blind eye. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll probably won't have much to spend, considering they'll be required to spend millions to get their stadium up to PL requirements/standards - should they achieve promotion.

Harrogatefox Posted 17 May 2023 Share Posted 17 May 2023 The prospect of Cov and Forest being in the PL and us languishing in the Championship is stuff of nightmares. Surely this must motivate the players to pull something out of the bag. Otherwise it’s a death by a thousand cuts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
