    I think the obvious answer is because he wasn't very good at it!

    How many games did it take him to start scoring for us?

    But no defenders have more control of a match outcome if they are going to throw it.

    It's more about first throw in, stuff like that. I wouldn't be surprised to hear that quite a bit of it goes on, nor that Mr Chopra was involved.

    I remember there was some fuss about this one a while back: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepag...red-kneecap-revenge-for-spot-fix-blunder.html

    "Le Tissier would have landed around £10,000 but his team-mate Neil Shipperley — unaware of the bet — stopped the ball going out. ... In his autobiography Taking Le Tiss he admits: “Spread betting had just started to be popular. I’d never have done anything that might have affected the outcome of the match, but I couldn’t see a problem with making a few quid on the first throw-in."
