@TheSimonGilbert: FYI this arrest could be to do with trying to beat time delays on betting websites rather than match fixing - http://t.co/vR3YlB5ysa
Correct me if wrong, but I believe it is like if someone scores betting before the odds change so get good odds. Or other types of bets corners etc
Yes they close it so fast if goal, must do when the balls trickling in, be on the phone for 90 minutes.
Not really, If you're betting on goals, I suppose you sit there, with two slips open, one for home the other for away, whatever comes in you just place it. Most sites have a delay for 'in play' betting but I reckon you could easily get around it by having someone there feeding info back.
Unless it affects the result then it shouldn't be a police issue, someone has found a fall in a service and is exploiting that, it's down to the betting site to plug that hole.

at 2-0 up i turned and said to the guy next to me, i might check the odds on a 2-2 draw. But thats not match fixing, thats just knowing we cant defend!
Surely if there is a time delay on a website that's just the bookies luck out?
Don't really see how this is a crime.

Sending electronic messages overseas at the time of an event - corner, throw in etc - I suspect.

And he was in the Coventry end too! Giving SISU money, the swine
Not sure of the legalities of it. Imagine if the 'mole' relayed a goal, thousands (or more) were placed on it, and it got disallowed!
Tried to put a bet on the last 10 mins and all betting was suspended for the rest of the game by bet365. Something dodgy here.
