Premier League - Scam fear over PFA young player award
Tis a pretty strange one.
http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/190420...yer-award.html
Bookmakers fear they could be the victims of a betting sting after large sums were placed on outsider Kyle Walker to win PFA Young Player of the Year.
The Tottenham full-back opened as a 33-1 rank outsider for the award but a string of big bets saw him move quickly to 5-6 favourite before most of the high street bookies closed the market.
"Enough is enough. After punters began trying to get £1000 bets on Kyle Walker to win Young PFA Player of Year we've closed the market," said William Hill media relations director Graham Sharpe on Twitter.Last edited by Tommyjw; 19-04-2012 at 22:48. -
Re: Premier League - Scam fear over PFA young player awardHe is better than Johnson. Richards, no.(Original post by Jim-Jam)
Overrated to hell anyway. Better than Johnson and Richards? My arse. Johnson played LB and showed him up for 90 minutes. -
Re: Premier League - Scam fear over PFA young player award
What are the nominees again?
Bale
Aguero
Walker
Welbeck
Oxlade-Chamberlain
?
Ox and Welbeck haven't been playing regularly. Aguero has been hit and miss. Bale over-hyped as always. Walker wouldn't be THAT surprising, would be weir to see a RB win it though. -

Award should easily be Agueros, even if i dont agree that he should be allowed to be nominated. -
Re: Premier League - Scam fear over PFA young player awardGenuinely shocked to hear Welbeck played 28, how many starting though?(Original post by Tommyjw)

Re: Premier League - Scam fear over PFA young player awardDid the Argentina Nigeria match resolve? Remember it was a dodgy Argentina with Mauro Boselli up front :8 and did Nigeria not win 4-1 with a dodgy penalty in the 90- minute....all after large bets had been placed on 4-1?(Original post by Tommyjw)

Dont believe he should get it either btw. But ill be happy aslong as Ox doesnt win it
Aguero or Bale should get it really but i dont agree that players of their age should be allowed to be involved anyway.Last edited by Tommyjw; 20-04-2012 at 00:56. -
Re: Premier League - Scam fear over PFA young player awardHas to be Hart, best keeper in the league, English and a regular starter, they should love him. Not the Ox, not Bale........(Original post by Tommyjw)

Re: Premier League - Scam fear over PFA young player awardWell Hart is in for the normal award not the young one :P(Original post by That Bearded Man)

Re: Premier League - Scam fear over PFA young player awardPlease do some research before spouting off. Hart isn't even up for the award as he's too old.(Original post by That Bearded Man)

But kudos for being ignorant in complete and utter bliss. -
Re: Premier League - Scam fear over PFA young player awardOh right then, well I apologise to Joe Hart for incorrectly putting him up for the award, as you can see above I recalled 5 and couldn't remember the sixth.(Original post by Kevmeister)

So yes, I made a mistake, no need to be so irritated -
Re: Premier League - Scam fear over PFA young player awardJohnson's better than both of them imo. Quite an underrated footballer in fact.(Original post by rorydaredking)
He is better than Johnson. Richards, no.
