Don't believe it! This is England!!
Saw an interview a while back from an Indian bookie stating that they had branched out, basically because it was cheaper to buy county cricketers and the games weren't as heavily watched. Not only that, but the wages they were on made it a much nicer deal for them. Can't recall if names were named, but English county cricket was certainly suggested to be given a lot of attention from the match fixers.
Not an accusation on my part, just stating I watched the interview.

BJT. You have nothing to worry about if you are making a general accusation or statement about what you think in the County game. The problem is when you name individual players and accuse them of fixing or even tar a small group of players (say, an entire cricket team) with the same brush. Believe me, I know my libel law...
Yeah I know, was just confirming that I have no opinion either way. I don't believe everything I see on television, but I certainly did see that on tv. What that means, who cares, just welcoming myself to the thread, after a less than spectacular reemergence in the sporting arena by myself.... lol
