Miranda indicted for match fixing?

Whats the punishment? Barton got a hefty ban for betting on games he wasn’t involved in wasn’t it? Although I think he had numerous offences?

Probably be gone end of the season anyway, not that good and doesn’t help with any possible homegrown rules.
 
Normally number of corners or throws or something silly like that. So nothing obvious like a “went knee high and got himself sent off”

Doesn't appear to be much wrong there either. I'd be questioning the forwards with the chances they missed

You’re not going to be able to tell With stats. There’s going to be an anomaly with betting patterns which meant something like there was “x number of corners in the first 15 mins” which a lot of money was won from and in the match that might coincide with a dodgy back pass or a player heading it behind under minimal pressure.

Whether the betting pattern is a natural anomaly and/or the event in the game is pure chance is what the authorities will try and work out.

Not normally smoke without fire in these cases but whether anything can be proven is a different matter.

But Rio Ave only conceded 2 corners all game so that's out of the running. I can't find stats for throw-ins

I’m only using that as an example. It could literally be anything. Go on SkyBet and look at the markets for Cardiff Preston tonight. There is literally hundreds of possible bets some more standard than others.
 
A big thing a few years ago was a throw-in in the first minute. I lost count of the times I saw the ball played back from kick off then hoofed to the wing but 'over' hit during televised games once this was pointed out to me.
 
Every game under Dean Saunders was fixed then..

Brian Cloughs teams did this for field position IIRC
 
Hmm. It would appear that Miranda was suspended for the game in question, and one of the other three named was on loan at another club. Sounds like a load of bollocks.

Cardiff did that last night.
 
There was an earlier match where he was also looked at and he was defo suspended for that one. Apparently this is Portguese press politics at its finest and should be treated as such.
