[Football] Ivan toney going to be in trouble - BANNED for 8 months to 17th Jan 2024

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Aren't there 8 PL clubs with gambling shirt sponsorship? I can't see this happening until that changes.

8 main shirt sponsors and another with Wolves who have a betting company as their sleeve sponsor.

Villa have also announced a deal with BK8 from next season.

You are correct that nothing will change as clubs won’t voluntarily vote to ban them. It needs to come from a government level like when they banned advertising/sponsorship of tobacco companies in the early 2000s.

A bit like the Tories and Johnson - too useful to burn?

We shall see....

Off topic, but more Breaking News:

"Police have confirmed that a white man from Croydon in his 50s has confessed to the murder of 8 women over a 5 year period from 2004 - 2009. The man has also been charged with a further 3 murders in the same time period - charges which he denies.

The man has been released while investigations into the 3 murders continues."

Nailed on hatrick?

Nailed on hatrick?

I’d be surprised if he played against our rivals for European place later this season (Newcastle, Liverpool & Spurs).

Prediction: Two goals today (from his only two chances/touches in the box) then banned this week before Brentford play Newcastle next Saturday.

Shame @attila is not still in charge of the music. Reckon he would be playing songs like Kenny Rogers The Gambler and The Who with You Better You Bet during the warm ups.

What if they were going to sentence Toney during international break and waistcoat got wind of it.
Selected him for England so they couldn't, in the hope of torpedoing our season.

Now that is a conspiracy theory perfect for this morning!

These corrupt ****s aren’t even subtle with their actions these days

If we score I think a rendition of “1 nil, and we f***ed your bet” is in order

 

[Surf's Up]

He should be banned already

His bet might be safe if it is a Toney own goal!

 

[Triggaaar]

He should be banned already

Obviously - it's a farce

I wouldn't be surprised if he's banned before United's game on Wednesday.

£50,000? Poor guy. I’m tempted to start a gofundme for him.

Ivan Toney has been suspended from all football and football-related activity with immediate effect for eight months, which runs up to and including 16 January 2024, fined £50,000 and warned as to his future conduct for breaches of The FA’s Betting Rules.

The Brentford FC forward was charged with 262 breaches of FA Rule E8 in total between 25 February 2017 and 23 January 2021. The FA subsequently withdrew 30 of these breaches and he admitted to the remaining 232.

His sanctions were subsequently imposed by an independent Regulatory Commission following a personal hearing. He is permitted to return to training only with his club for the final four months of his suspension starting from 17 September 2023.

The independent Regulatory Commission’s written reasons for these sanctions will be published in due course, and The FA will wait to review them before commenting further.
