Mervyn Westfield Is A ****

[benchmark00]

Spikey quoting Twitter. Unusual.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

I had a feeling Kenaria was involved.

Spikey quoting Twitter. Unusual.

I could use plenty of quotes I've got from your mother but this is a family forum

"Westfield's team found an expert who said he was not underperforming when he conceded 12 runs against Durham in first over"

More tweets cause the players of Essex are ****s

Richard DJ Edwards @Cricketer_RDJ
Cricketers at Essex "turned a blind eye" to Kaneria's fixing approaches. No one reported him despite many players being approached

DJ Edwards Richard DJ Edwards @Cricketer_RDJ
Coach Paul Grayson also admits that he had heard within the club that Kaneria would talk

DJ Edwards Richard DJ Edwards @Cricketer_RDJ
BREAKING Kaneria also approached opening batsman Varun Chopra

Richard DJ Edwards Richard DJ Edwards @Cricketer_RDJ
Pettini said in statement he'd never taken K seriously, despite claims he knew people who would pay considerable money to influence matches

Richard DJ Edwards Richard DJ Edwards @Cricketer_RDJ
BREAKING Kaneria talked openly about fixing in front of Essex captain Mark Pettini, vice captain James Foster and David Masters

 

[ajdude]

**** from reading all of @Cricketer_RDJ's tweets sounds like this thread should just be renamed to "danish kaneria is a ****ing ****"

then mervyn westfield releases a cover of "i might be a ****, but i'm not a ****ing ****"

 

[Spikey]

i guess we all already knew anyone who lives in Essex is a ****

especially ravi bopara

Quite sure Bopara wouldn't notice organised crime infiltrating his house, let alone his cricket club.

That doesn't reflect well on Essex at all.

four months in prison/'will serve at least two months in jail, and will then be released on licence'

 

[Spikey]

now let's cross to current Essex player Tymal Mills for his thoughts on this: Shiiiiiiit, Mervs gone down! 4 months in prison.


Thank you Tymal.

Let's hear Essex CCC's official reaction

New shirts, everybody

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Wow, this guy got less than Amir.

 

[Spikey]

They deleted a tweet they made during the hearing: "Job opportunity at Essex Cricket! http://www.essexcricket.org.uk/news/168/129/Essex-Cricket-Retail--Job-Opportunity/"



Stunning

 

[social]

Wow, this guy got less than Amir.

Complete farce and reflects extremely poorly on the English "justice" system

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Nah, I was just surprised that he got less. It's good news though. I don't think jail is right for this. Now they should reduce Butt's and Asif's term.

 

[marc71178]

Why should they? Westfield got less but he failed to reach his set limits.

Butt and Asif are far more corrupt and IMO have still gotten off lightly from the whole thing.

 

[Viscount Tom]

Nah them two don't have the excuse that they are simple Essex folk (believe me when I say they are simple).

Can imagine them arguing in court about how **** at cricket their client usually was. Classic.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

They probably are more corrupt, no doubt about that. But I have always thought jail was harsh.

But Westfield's case did defraud the bookies, whereas no-ball gate didn't. So technically his was worse.
