Ex-Stranraer footballer implicated in 'spot-fixing' after undercover investigation

Emile N'Goy has played for Stranraer, Brechin City and Llanelli Town AFC. He has been secretly filmed helping to recruit players to spot-fix matches. BBC Wales journalists secretly recorded four meetings with him and his brother Hermes. Idris Laib, Jean-Francois Mbuba and Julien Vercauteren are the other players who were involved in spot fixing. They have not responded to the claims. Emile has denied he and the others planned to fix matches, while Hermes has not commented. Spot- fixing is a crime committed by players manipulating moments in games to defraud bookmakers.
