    Fuxxake...
    It was a silly bet about eating a pie, not how many goals they'd let in!

    Sounds like the Club are more embarrassed that he was caught on tv stuffing his face and looking a bit amateurish ( which they are anyway) than the betting legalities. Haven't heard that Joey Bartons offered his resignation!

    I suppose celebrity fat club, big brother, this-morning or whatever are queuing up!

    I watched the match last night and didn't think much of it, then this morning read he was talking about knowing what the odds of it happening were. Didn't think it'd be too long before it was getting investigated.

    Just finding out about this now.

    Feel for the guy. If he was involved in making money out of it, he has just been stupid given the rules in football about betting. He seems like a big happy go lucky guy who has had a bit of a laugh with the pie but there's been more to it obviously.

    The bookmaker should be the one embarassed by offering such a bet in the first place.

    Sounds like it's ' £un bet' who are also the club shirt sponsors... So would appear at least to be too 'cosy ' a link.

    I very much doubt this is the case. Huge amount of free publicity for them. I wonder how many people had never heard of the firm before today ?

    Yeah rules are rules but this is just daft literally no-one has lost out here and there is no way some fat lad having a pie could have in anyway affected the game or the result.

    He should've at least made it appear as if he was trying to be fly about it.
