Famous Manchester United player Wayne Rooney's father, uncle and seven other people were recently arrested over allegations of a soccer betting scam. Allegations stem from an irregular betting pattern being bet on a red card being given during a game between Motherwell and Hearts of the Scottish Premier League last December which paid 10/1. The arrested player for Motherwell, Steve Jennings allegedly got himself sent off deliberately during the match. Bookmakers noticed the irregular pattern after multiple people bet on this prop which triggered a nine-month investigation.
