I think that's still under investigation, isn't it? And he's playing in the meantime (as was the case with Toney). It took the FA what, six months to sort Toney's case? So I imagine that Paqueta's will drag on a similar amount of time and allow him to significantly affect West Ham's season until there's a verdict... Zaniolo and Tonali are being charged in a different country for (potentially) betting on sports other than football. So who knows how long until there's a resolution and how severe the punishments will be (if there are any).

TheFish Posted October 18, 2023 Visiting Supporter Share Posted October 18, 2023 If he's found guilty then he should face a similar ban that Toney's got. If AC Milan knew this was coming down the road and didn't mention it we should sue them for fraud, if Tonali didn't disclose it we should do him as well. Of all the recent signings, he's definitely not the worst for this to have happened to. Id be way more gutted if it was Isak or Botman in this kind of trouble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAZZAM Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 I reckon Milan knew and kinda explains the transfer and Tonali's initial unhappiness. However proving it will be impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, it's like they are despicable and wanted to hide it. It's washing away the truth in sport. If only we had a name for this behaviour. Just remembered it's called Sportswashing, but loveable NUFC wouldn't know anything about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAlex Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Tonali hasn't really settled other than a good start against us typically. Their fans aren't impressed with his performances and think he needs a year to settle in. A year playing though not sitting on his arse. I do think he was a bit of a strange signing for this league.

Maybe there's some truth in the Kalvin Philips rumours. You might be able to get to January before a ban kicks in and then bring in a replacement.

Playing him together with Guimaraes is what seems odd to me. They both want to do the creative stuff, but maybe not so much of the defensive work. Either one of them plus two more physical & energetic CM/DMs makes more sense in Newcastle's system, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replace a betting ban with an underlying injury Would you be able to sue for fraud under those circumstances or would you say it's newcastles failure to do due diligence? If you could prove that they'd tampered with documents or purposefully withheld info then there'd be a case, if newcastles medical team missed it you wouldn't, you would have to be able to demonstrate a lie for it to be fraud Now revert back to gambling, same thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
