If that were the case, I have no doubt it isn't, both would be guilty of conspiracy to defraud.

Unfortunately that is the sort of thing that happens Brendan. Reminds me of the famous story of how the Rosthchilds made their excessive fortune by manipulating the stock market due to some dubious trading over 200 years ago.

People will always be on the lookout for easy ways to make money. The more money you have, the easier it is to get more. Stock markets, bankers, betting companies, they are all at it. They grab it because they can.

I am a small fry better. As long as I keep it that way I won't get sucked in by the big boys. I suppose I am lucky, others aren't. Conspiracy to defraud is a pretty serious thing to throw out there. I am sure that what was suggested didn't happen, no honestly I really do believe it didn't happen that way with the MF bets. Honest.

Nolan in line for the AFC Wimbledon job. Ardley & Nolan effectively swapping clubs.

Wrexham fans all a gog to find out more. To be honest was hoping it was going to be neither of us in terms of losing our manager. Still think when any manager leaves there should be one months notice. Shrewsbury would have got their arse in gear sooner then, if they are going to plunder another teams manager. The rules as they stand lend itself to cloak and dagger stuff ala #costasheridan. For Wrexham's sake hope it's Ramsey and Coyne the Shrews caretakers to stay til the end of the season.

Agree with that. I’m no apologist for our polydigitally compromised friends but it could derail their season. Fed up with football financial shenanigans.

A manager's stock goes up and down. It's high now. It can go a little higher over the next six months but the potential fall is far greater.
