Football official suspended after betting on own team to lose 130 times

For placing 130 bets on his own team to lose, a Swansea City official received a suspension.

Because of his erroneous wagers, the club's player liaison officer was fined £1,500 and prohibited from working in sports for a year.

For twenty years at the club, including in the Premier League, he was responsible for resolving problems for elite players.

However, between April 2018 and September 2023, he acknowledged making 2,476 wagers on games.
