FA cup- Wayne Shaw's pie eating investigated by FA and gambling commission
Sutton reserve goalkeeper Wayne Shaw is under investigation by the Football Association for potentially breaching betting rules during Monday's FA Cup loss to Arsenal.
The Gambling Commission is also investigating if there was a breach of betting regulations after Shaw ate a pie in the 83rd minute of the game.
Before Monday's game, a bookmaker offered odds of 8-1 that Shaw would eat a pie on camera during the match.

He has subsequently resigned from Sutton United.

Hard to see what the offence is. If the bookies are going to make such stupid wagers they deserve everything they get.

The biggest offence is that the odds were as far out as 8's
Maybe they were the odds on just ONE pie

That guy could go in a pie eating competition with Robbie Key, Inzamum, Arjuna and Cosgrove. Maybe Lyon, Bung and Reeks FFS could serve them up.
Lardy of course would be the umpire.

Don't mind munching on a pie, but I wouldn't want it televised.
