Former Bolton and West Brom player denies match-fixing allegations

Former Bolton, Hull and West Bromwich Albion striker Delroy Facey has denied being part of a match-fixing conspiracy. Facey pleaded not guilty to a charge of conspiracy to commit bribery during a brief hearing before a judge at Birmingham Crown Court.

The 34 year old striker was bailed to appear for trial at the same court on April 13 next year.

Officers from the National Crime Agency charged Facey in September as part of what they described as an ongoing match-fixing investigation.
