England Are A Schweintruppe #

Yesterday's Andorra versus England game was a fix.

Later in this post, we detail for our subscribers how the fix was perpetrated, minute by minute on the field of 'play'.
As for the rest of you freeloaders, at least you know that the match was rigged.

Yesterday's Andorra versus England game was a fix.

On only three occasions in their last 23 Internationals have the Mighty Andorra been able to go in at Half Time with the scores level - two of those occasions have been against the Three Lions of England.

By involving themselves in a rigged event just one day after reports in the German press implied that the England versus Ecuador 2006 World Cup match was fixed (it was, by the way - we traded it), the participants in the scam were pushing their luck somewhat.

On Friday in The Guardian, Dan Roebuck of Ladbrokes Radio came out with the following dross: "Such outcomes [Draw at HT, England to Win at Full Time], though, are rare as Andorra have been level at half time only twice in their last 22 fixtures". The lying liar then went on to advise the gullible that "one bet that could prove profitable is a buy of the bookings index at 44". Well, it certainly proved to be profitable for the bookies - the make-up was 20. Buying bookings in non-competitive matches is a sure route to bankruptcy.
A classic of disinformation and journalistic abdication.

The bookmakers very frequently use the HT Draw/ Full Time England Win template in International matches where England are short odds-on. Greedy punters are renowned for ignoring the 1.02 (1/50) on an England victory to get a greater return by backing England to be ahead at Half Time and at Full Time. We've lost count of the number of occasions where this template has been employed.

It explores how the game was fixed, which individuals we should be asking questions of, which data reveals the scam plus the mechanics of deliberately underperforming for 45 minutes against a pub team of amateurs.
It takes quite a lot of doing to avoid a shot on target for the entire First Half against such a team.
