Failed GA
[edit]This article failed from lack of stability due to being a current event. Everything else otherwise is good. Tarret 21:19, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
Looks like we have a decent article going here. Anyone up for doing a main article on BETonSports? I would do it but can't access gambling sites from my current connection. SmartGuy 18:29, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
GA on hold
[edit]I think that the article could use some more in-line citations, especially around the Appointment as CEO, BETonSPORTS Plc and Initial Detention Hearing sections. Also, there could be less of a focus on Carruther's arrest/trial and more of a focus on his biography and career. Diez2 14:50, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
Failed GA
[edit]Seeing that no edits have come to the article since I have placed it on hold, I am now failing this article's GA nomination. Diez2 19:30, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
guilty plea needs better citation
[edit]Appears that he pleaded guilty but I can't get to any decent article about his plea since I am behind a firewall that blocks gambling news sites. Can someone please find a better article than the Bloomberg byline that I posted in the guilty plea section? ♣♦ SmartGuy ♥♠ (talk) 13:28, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
