Rooney's father arrested in betting probe

[Rag_hater]

Amazes me that no-one is daring in the media to ask any questions here. Doesn't son Wayne have something to do with football? Wonder if he's missed any penalties lately? Etc.

If this was many other walks of life or sport he may be asked to consider his position.

Without any proof is it not slander?
It would be nice to do what you say but it seems like getting any proof would be very very difficult.

You would start by looking at his history of penalty misses and sendings off. Compare with betting trends. The Motherwell thing must have stood out like a bacon sandwich at a jewish wedding (who the fuck bets on that in Liverpool?), so matches involving Manchester United will need a little more detective work due to the large volume of bets.

I feel the fraud squad ought to check, just to put my mind at rest and ensure complete integrity.

It's not slander to ask the questions.

And I think it's libel not slander as well.

It depends on whether the relatives are found guilty or not. IF Rooney's relatives are proven to have been involved in this kind of behaviour, then it's the absolute duty of the authorities to check back on Rooney's actions & find out if there were any suspicious betting patterns at the time he received cards etc. If you once get involved in this stuff, you are theirs for life, as they can blackmail you, so it absolutely has to be investigated, as he could do it, under threat, in the future.

There's no way of actually proving that those Pakistani cricketers bowled no-balls to order apart from the fact that someone has said they were going to do so, then they did it. If Rooney's actions coincided with ridiculous betting patterns, they may be able to get someone from that organisation to grass him up & give details. If there were no betting patterns then he has no case to answer.

Confirmation the press run scared of the likes of Rooney. Jennings played in the same youth team as Rooney at Everton.

It's a sensitive subject right now but if there is anything to uncover in this, you can bet your life they will go after it like starved hyenas. At the moment, all we have is some fat scouse scum who've been arrested & happen to be related to a whoring, cheating, scouse scumbag who happens to be a footballer .

His son gets a red card.

Love it!

I wonder if his dad had a little bet on it tonight?

2-2. Good. Used to be very supportive of England years ago, but I despise these clowns.

So, more inept fun next summer. But at least Rooney won't be contributing to at least one game. Hate the sight of him, the weird fucker.

Double ditto, have watched it a few times and there was a point where surely wooneys restraint should have kicked in. Looks dodgy as fuck with all whats gone on this week.
