I’m incredibly alarmed by this. #footballindex users have raised many questions into the failures following the collapse of the platform and have suffered losses of millions of pounds through regulatory failure. I will be looking to raise this when the House returns.

It is over two years since I spoke in Parliament about the football index scandal & the huge impact it had on my constituents & many others. We saw a shocking failure from the regulator & DCMS at the time & I know this news below will be a kick in the teeth for those impacted.

Went to Scunthorpe v Boston in the National League North play-offs today. Sixth tier of English football and there was 8,036 there. Up the pyramid.

@Danny_McEvoy1 @Jonny_Singer You’re incorrect - that was the main point of it.
Emiliano Martinez does it again. He runs the full length of the pitch to celebrate with the Villa fans high up in the far corner. Shithousery of the highest order. Villa coaches are understandably pushing him off the pitch now. #AVFC
MARTINEZ BOOKED for winding up the crowd again. He's already been booked. Yet he stays on... what the fuck is happening #AVFC
Thanks @josephmdurso for a sustained professional interest in this massive UK betting & regulators #SCANDAL Government need to listen properly and fully understand what happened #footballindex #footstock, who was at fault. Give justice & stop it from happening again! @DCMS
🚨Exclusive: Football Index co-founder Adam Cole is behind a strikingly similar new football crypto trading website. He is investor in and advisor to KiX which uses Football Index as 'proof of concept'. It's a "kick in the teeth" for campaigners. thetimes.co.uk/sport/football…

✍️ NEW: I've analysed every Premier League match since the 2014-15 season to see what impact, if any, kick-off times are having @TimesSport . Here is what I found 🧵 thetimes.co.uk/article/57f6f9…
So happy and proud of this 🥹😊 🥰
Now it is time for this year's Sports Writer of the Year. For the impact his stories made in a truly stellar year, the recipient of the John Bromley Trophy is @AdamCrafton_. Congratulations Adam! #SJA2023
because the blackout serves its purpose perfectly well, helps to protect attendances at lower league / non-league football, and these clubs are a huge feature of many towns (or constituencies, for this purpose) across the country.
If you’re gonna do a populist TV football policy in election year, surely it shouldn’t be 10 free-to-air Premier League games per season (meh), but scrapping the ridiculous 3pm blackout that means British fans can’t watch the majority of games but people abroad can?
The Mayra Ramirez effect
I'm in Colombia, and have spotted multiple locals in Chelsea shirts, more than any English club. This is why the 'Big Six' is such an enduring thing - in the eyes of the casual global fan it will take years of mid-table finishes before such a powerful brand loses its lustre.
@josephmdurso What a bit of news this is. Well done mate, not just for everything you’ve achieved so far, but for everything you’re sure to achieve going forward.
@josephmdurso Congrats, Joey - your reporting on crypto in football clubs has been fantastic. The Times is lucky to have you!
@josephmdurso Good luck in your new role - enjoyed your work on the Athletic
Top signing for The Times!
📈 I am joining The Times as senior data journalist. I'm excited to join a brilliant team and do stories and investigations on lots of big topics, including going back to covering politics in a big election year. I start at the end of this month.
I am bereft
⚽ A hat-trick of news from me. I'm leaving the Athletic after 3.5 years. It's been brilliant and I've done a bunch of work I'm really proud of, from Football Index to crypto, supported by a fantastic bunch of journalists. I'll remain an avid subscriber.
