Spot Fixing Scandal Thread: The Legend Continues

[Biggy]

Just heard on a news preview that APPARENTLY the Paks made 2 mil from THAT Sydney Test.

Sauce!

Err.... I mean Source?

 

[Themer]

Haha, "Sorry for the racism let me just crack out the sexism instead."

 

[mattfb]

Don't see them unless I go to the fridge for a beer. So don't care about them.

Sexually deprived? Or sex at the fridge?...

Sky Sports News: Eggs confiscated from Pakistan fans by police

:laugh

 

[Dutch]

FFS!

Can we start behaving a bit like we are in fact older than 10, although some of you may not be. Cut the racism and sexism or any other -ism that is not tolerated with in the forums or I am going to start being a real ar**whole. This hole Pakistani thing has made me real uptight....

 

[Themer]

Yeah you just went well over the mark.

 

[Dutch]

Okay bye bye....Mr Tim

Somebody off the 7PM project tonight summed up what Pakistan might do, just deny all the allegations and do a Paris Hilton and say "what money, never seen that before?"

 

[Themer]

They can do that but there's a strong possibility that the money they found in the Pakistan team hotel can be proved to be the same that the News of the World gave to Majeed.

If they can prove that then it would probably be enough in a court of law to implicate the bowlers at the very least if the video in question doesn't do that enough as it is.

I would imagine that the NOTW would have marked the money somehow to link it the Pakistani players involved. You would have thought and hoped that the ICC would make a stronger statement than they have done so. It all seems so limp and toothless. Yes, I know that they are just allegations but they could at least say more than: no comment!

I'm pretty sure by law they cannot comment on an ongoing police investigation. Hence the silence from the boards and ICC.

Oh, so Majeed recorded this video after the balls were bowled for a bit of fun? To see if he could get arrested and possibly go to jail?:sarcasm

Have ANY of the suspected players come out and denied the claims?

If NOTW can pay 150K for spot fixing, then they can pay the same to Majeed for going into jail for a little bit of time, just to create a media hype :sarcasm

Anything is possible...He is already out on bail :sarcasm and if Scotland Yard doesn't find anything concrete, Majeed won't have a police case anymore and hence this was all useless.

YES Salman Butt did call these things as just "allegations" if YOU heard the press conference.

Just look at the videos, the way Majeed is counting the money piled up in front of him lol what perfect camera angles are those

I say let the Scotland Yard complete the investigation and come out with a verdict, only then those demanding and whining about a test ban on Pakistan should put that demand forward.Innocent until proven guilty

If the currency notes match, then I say again it's curtains for those involved.

Cheers !

The NOTW, albeit not the most respected of newspapers, hasn't made this all up paying the man to do it.

And being bailed has nothing to do with possible guilt.

I am not saying by being bailed is not guilty, don't skip the other part of the post.If nothing found...Majeed is off from Police case, if that happens then what was this hype all about ? I am trying to look at the other side of the coin.
