A match fixing scam in Turkey that was found from a bigger investigation in Europe.

 

When added to the stories of the Essex Cricketers it makes one woder how on earth people can be so thick as to keep trying to do this after the Hansie Cronje affair.

 

Anyone else pick up any more details or stories/rumours?

Anyone who uses betfair a lot will notice there are loads of really odd betting paterns that point towards match fixing - I remember a game in some greek league with 350k staked on 2-0, all the other games had 1k tops, suprisingly it finished 2-0....

This will prob end up doing the rounds (if it hasn't already).

Gist of: Some Leeds fan posts on their board a DEAD CERT of a match fix - and a probable other one. His Italian uncle know these things - or does he?
