* not at CharltonCafcWest said:
Wasn't one or both of the Sodjes involved in illegal betting? * So getting the red might have been pre-planned?iaitch said:Sam Sodje was the first sending off, we had a corner which broke down, Sodje then took out the Swindon player 80 yards from our goal.
Moron or gambler you decide.
On February 23, 2013 , Sodje (same one as in the thread) then playing for Portsmouth, was sent off for punching Oldham Athletic’s Jose Baxter in the groin.
Sodje allegedly admitted to having being paid £70,000 to be sent off in the match.
Undercover reporter, Mazher Mahmood, also known as the ‘Fake Sheikh’s five-page article in The Sun on Sunday led to the prosecution of Sodje and others.
In July 2014, Mahmood was suspended by the sun following a judge’s statement that Mahmood may have perjured* himself.Contostavlos’s case, that of Sodje and 29 others, were dropped because of accusations of perjury against their accuser, Mahmood.
*told un truths
Think it is best to leave it there (as it is un related to this thread and the reporter, who was reporting it, was telling lies himself).0 -
Sam definitely was, although not sure if he was ever found guilty.CafcWest said:

Moron or gambler you decide."Six people were arrested by the NCA in December 2013 as the result of an investigation into match fixing by the Sun on Sunday. Sam Sodje allegedly claimed that he could arrange for footballers in the Football League to get themselves booked in exchange for cash payments. One of the six people arrested was footballer DJ Campbell.
Sodje told reporters that in an attempt to receive a red card and £70,000 he had twice punched the Oldham Athletic player Jose Baxter while playing for Portsmouth in a League One match. Sodje also claimed that he was preparing to fix games at the 2014 FIFA World Cup and that he had organised £30,000 to be paid to a Championship player for receiving a yellow card. Sodje additionally claimed that he could fix Premier League games"

A good while back a West Ham striker whose surname begins with K (he also played a few games on loan for us) received the ball from the start game kick off and hoofed it straight into touch. Nothing was said at the time, however a lot of bets on the first throw in occurring before10 seconds had been laid. This came to light a long time after the event. I wonder how much K, another notorious gambler, won, if anything of courseChris_from_Sidcup said:

Jason Euell leaves Cambridge Assistant role after Neil Harris took over: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cvgwzrr3zj3o0

Surprised he was there. Didn't he leaves us because he wasn't the manager's job and Jackson was.CafcWest said:Jason Euell leaves Cambridge Assistant role after Neil Harris took over: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cvgwzrr3zj3o
Probably was the brunt of Neil Harris' spat the other day.
Kind of feel sorry for him (Euell), he has been unlucky.1 -
I hadn't realised he was there. I knew he had been at Bristol City, but not Cambridge0

He can do much better than Cambridge Utdkillerandflash said:I hadn't realised he was there. I knew he had been at Bristol City, but not Cambridge0 -

Agreed, no idea what they expected him to do0

Scott Lindsay to return?fenaddick said:0 -
Shame for Rob, probably too big of a jump too soon from Gateshead, and to a bit of a poor ran club... Hope this doesnt stall his Managerial career2
-
Shame for Rob but the fans have wanted him gone for months. Not sure what anyone was expecting to happen there when the owners sold anyone with a transfer value in the summer.
Wonder if Lindsay would go back or if he feels like it's a burnt bridge with the owners1 -
Didn't Evans manage there once? Or am I hallucinating?
EDIT: He did, for five years! I was sure he left in some big bust-up type thing after only a few months. Need to lay off the drink.
EDIT2: Ah yes, I remember why I think he's such a c**t now

Crawley is a mess, but Rob hasn't helped himself by trying to play such a pure passing from the back style. It just doesn't work with poor players, and much better opponents.1

Some Gillingham fans will be pissed of. Lindsey was the person they wanted to take over from Colman.0

Gareth Ainsworth leaving Shrewsbury to join Gillingham. Not sure what’s going on in Shropshire but can’t be great news for them.0
-
Rumours Ainsworth only went to Shrewsbury because he was linked to a consortium that was trying to take over the club. Appears that's fallen through0
-
There's no money at all at Shrewsbury and plenty at Gillingham, both will be in L2 next season so can see why he's jumped ship0
-
Needs this job to be a success or that's 3 failures in a row since leaving Wycombe and you wonder who else will take a chance on him.3

He was awful at QPR, on par with Appleton as a manager.Callumcafc said:Gareth Ainsworth leaving Shrewsbury to join Gillingham. Not sure what’s going on in Shropshire but can’t be great news for them.

Not great for John Coleman either, brought in to the end of the season, and dispensed with in March!0

Coleman's record anywhere but Accrington is pretty awful.killerandflash said:Not great for John Coleman either, brought in to the end of the season, and dispensed with in March!0 -

And, some people would have said the same about Nathan Jones away from Luton, before he joined us...0
