Chinese man arrested over Coventry result? (1 Viewer)

[Paxman II]

There would have to be player involvement....and there was I wondering why we leaked so many goals from simple player error?

Lets hope I just have a very suspicious and conspiracy way of looking at things and this has no meat on the bones.

It wasn't the result as such but an attempt to manipulate the foreign betting markets.

Did he bet that we were bought by the stupidest most inept owners ever? who made a catalogue of ludicrous decisions to drop us down a league, and end up homeless, if so the Football League will surely get involved and find us another owner that will pass the fit and proper test like SISU did :facepalm:

...and he needed to be at the game in Northampton to do this?

Yes, it was an attempt to manipulate the in play markets abroad. Basically if you could find a way of finding out what happens in a match 30 seconds before the bookmakers do then you can make a lot of money.

if he went to a Coventry "home" game in Northampton he was asking for it and deserves to be done. lets face it a suspicious acting chinease man was never going to get lost in the crowd, or lack of. he must have stuck out like a spare prick at a wedding

Hope he has not been arrested for betting on us throwing a two goal lead away as that would be very harsh!
