22nd in the table with no win in 10 this season, owners are probably hopping he is suspended from football so they can replace him without paying him offclive said:AFC Wimbledon manager Wally Downes has been suspended by the League One club after he was charged by the Football Association over bets placed on games.

Weird how Wimbledon turned around after that awful display at The Valley against 10 men, but they seem to have gone backwards again.
Shocked that the most recent bet was on the 12th July this summer, i.e. well after Joey Barton was banned, surely you would learn the lesson1 -

Not that we beat them according to Jose...3 -
To be fair when we talk about our long unbeaten home run, we "do a Huddersfield" and ignore the home playoff defeat!Ross said:killerandflash said:

West Ham supporters were puzzled when Wally left after being first team coach under Big Sam. I think we now know why.Dansk_Red said:Wally Downes susspended by Wimbledon after FA investigations into betting irregularities which took place in 2011/2012.0 -

Apparently he bet £1.11 on a woman’s match in Mexico. If true, I’m 50/50 on this. Obviously there are strict betting rules and he knew that but if he didn’t know any of the players, coaches etc to gain inside information, it’s not exactly crime of the century. Hopefully he will only get a fine rather than a banDansk_Red said:Wally Downes susspended by Wimbledon after FA investigations into betting irregularities which took place in 2011/2012.0 -

But then that's why Joey Barton did (though on a much greater scale), betting on matches where he had no personal involvement, and he got banned from playing for a year or two which effectively ended his careerTodds_right_hook said:

if they had won a penalty at 0-0 i would have liked to have seen someone else get the ball off of him!0 -
Sorry didn't realise that, though while I agree the principle has to adhered to, the actual sum was only £3!cafcdave123 said:

According to most media websites Wally Downes made bets on football from 2013 to 2019. Why are people saying he only bet on football during 2011-12?0

Well he left Millwall lets see if he goes Southend as I predictedpaulie8290 said:
Harris gets the chop at Millwall and goes there, he finished his career there and was born in Orsett which is about 20 miles from SouthendForeverAddickted said:
Thing is which way do they turn... Could go experienced but Paul Hurst @ Scunthorpe isnt doing great, nor can I think of one who would be useful that is out of workSage said:
They seriously need someone who is going to tighten up that defence and stop them conceding so many goals. Otherwise, as things are going Southend are going to get cut adrift from everyone else above them and there will only be one relegation space to fill in League One.killerandflash said:League One strugglers Southend United want to bring in former Sweden, Celtic, Barcelona and Manchester United striker Henrik Larsson as their new manager. (Mail)
Would question if they should consider doing what Shrewsbury did by looking down the Leagues as you've got the likes of Matt Taylor and Mike Duff at Cheltenham doing wonders, maybe they should look at the Conference and find another Ricketts like what Shrewsbury did
Someone from abroad though, is that really the right way to go? - Larsson's name might bring in a few people and so raise the gate receipts but is that better than playing it safe?0 -

Questionned on Saturday if Stendel would last much longer0

What the fuck do some chairmen want...?? He got them promoted at the first time of asking & I doubt they have much of a budget. Just glad we have the owner we do....😉5

Really harsh. Partially down to Bowyer, who's clearly overachieving and setting a very high bar for the other managers of the newly promoted sides...7
-
You see I agree about Bowyer setting a high bar for others to look at and compare to.
However, they’ve scored the least and conceded the most so far this season. They also spent about £5mil in the summer and haven’t won a game since the opening game of the season.
If they want any chance of staying up, they have to part ways because he doesn’t show any ability in being able to turn them around.3 -
Punished for his own success.
If Barnsley had finished in the play offs last season and not gone up, he'd likely have kept his job and they would probably be battling again for promotion this season.
He did even better and got them promoted, now gets sacked because they're not mid table.3 -
It's a cut throat results busines where some owners pull the trigger quicker than others. Nathan Jones has been at the other end of the spectrum at Stoke, whilst Solskjaer and Marco Silva might not be so lucky.
