yeah I do agree that the texts made it clear they were waiting for news so they could bet (but mainly just hearing big news as they are his mates and he is leaving the country).
Its an odd one and I read a good article on it the other day by Barry Glendenning basically just saying the rule is really just in place to protect bookies, and if someone was leaving the country for a job then they would tell their mates, so they should not tell them now? what about his wife telling her family and friends? Should he keep it a secret from his wife until its all done? if you move abroad you are going to tell a bunch of people, you can't really be held responsibly for what they do, much better for the bookies to just not have these kind of stupid bets.
