Punishments over gambling

Yesterday the French football league (Ligue de Football Professionnel) penalized 19 players and coaches for gambling on matches in domestic football. Although the organization did not say which games they bet on their names are known, while most of the players are from Nice.
Valere Germain, Kevin Gomis, Olivier Boscagli and Alexandre Mendy are banned for two games and 1.500 euros fine. Jeremy Pied and Albert Rafetraniaina were suspended for three games without a fine. Apart from Nice, players from other French clubs have breached strict gambling rule. Thomas Toure and Cedric Carrasso from Bordeaux received a three match suspension while Chateauroux defender Calvin Mangan will 'go on forced leave' on five games. Sochaux's Pierre Gibaud, Kevin Dupuis from Orleans, Anthony Derouard who plays for Bastia along with his teammate Vincent Leca Boucher are also on the list.
Some greedy French coaches who liked to earn some extra money were not spared also. Nice's duo Alexandre Dellal and Emmanuel Valance, Pierrer Barrieu from La Havre, Caen's Jean-Michel Huriez, Julien Witkowski from Reims and Toulouse coach Robin Crouzil were also punished which completes 19 'famous' gambling names.
