Re: Rob heys
 

So the risk to the club is reputation?
No risk of a fine?

Re: Rob heys
 

Reputation is about all that Stanley have and with the alleged behaviour of its CX, that can easily be lost.
Some will, and have on here, argued that the FA rule on betting is rather petty (not least given the willingness of football authorities and clubs to get into bed with gambling firms). But what bothers me is that the club's CX, by publicising his gambling, appears to have not known or cared about such a rule.

Re: Rob heys
 

From the BBC website earlier today;

"Stoke's Cameron Jerome has been fined £50,000 for breaking Football Association betting rules.

The striker, 27, admitted repeatedly breaching the regulations. But the charge is not related to match fixing or betting on games he was involved in and he has the right to appeal against the sanction.

"Cameron Jerome has been fined £50,000, subject to any appeal, following an Independent Regulatory Commission hearing," the FA said in a statement.

"Jerome, who was also severely warned as to his future conduct, admitted a number of breaches of the FA's Betting Rules and requested a personal hearing which took place on Tuesday 13 August 2013."

Accrington Stanley managing director Robert Heys also admitted breaking betting rules earlier this month and is to have a hearing at the FA. "

Heck!

You missed out this one DivThreeN

Tottenham midfielder Andros Townsend has been fined £18,000 by the Football Association for breaching betting regulations.

The 21-year-old was also suspended for four months backdated to 23 May although three of those months have been suspended until 1 July 2016.

Heys will be somewhere in between I'll wager ;)

Re: Rob heys

Re: Rob heys

Re: Rob heys
 

Person Charged i would think? If they were personal bets.

Re: Rob heys
 

I once got done for speeding in the works van, I asked the boss if the firm would pay the fine. His reply; "If you committed murder would I hang?"
