Loopholes are found anywhere, that's for sure.

And for sure it's far better to try to do it somewhere where people wouldn't their eyes too hard Cheesy

You would be shocked if you knew how easy it is to bribe a match in the Ukrainian Premier League.

This is not done directly... like in the good old days, there are people who monitor where football players are relaxing. They send girls... a little drugs and a lot of booze. Or they simply bribe the referee so that he finds a reason to award a penalty.

After reading inspce’s response I don’t think bookies know matches that are rigged if they know and still accept bets for that match then it would mean that they’ll be doing themselves dirty because those who rigged the game would definitely also bet on it and that would be a shortage on the bookies end, except they are not using that said bookie.

I have already added the movie to my watchlist, I’ll probably go through it before I go to bed tonight.

I got interested and went further ... Sportradar says that 1 bribed football match is played every day (to be precise, 4145 matches have been played over the last 11 years). I think large bookmakers use this data and react to suspicious odds (they limit the size of bets or do not accept bets on suspicious matches at all).
