I had some "nice" conversations with him, I might invite him here to share his opinions on this but I bet he'll ignore all my invitations.

From his team mate Wallace:

It is very scary playing a 50k single elimination game online, I had 2 knockout games

I was shaking so bad I couldn't even play friendlies before it lol again anyone sensible had video camera or screenshots saver ready in advance in case you're opponent was going to be a sneaky mofo and cheat you, which I'm sure for 50k some would

Rob simply got scared, he could a won vs Sykes legit, but had it all planned out to cheat him, he made photos in advanced made a master plan and got caught simple..

I got sent the evidence and gave it to the admins, I wasn't going to sweep it under the rug, I did tell some people what happened, I apologies for that guess am just a big gossip

I thought he would get kicked from play.com, didnt expect a 1 year ban.

I am Rob team mate, not robs friend, never trusted him since at pes6 he was doing funny buisness against me when we were rivals going for that number 1 spot and saying bad things behind my back, offline he is cool but online he is arrogant and talks down to people, talks behinds peoples backs, disrespects everyone who aint his close mates like Marko and Crisps thats why they are loyal the know the Rob outside of pes who is a nice guy

Rob should just admit what he has done and say sorry and let it be, m

Alright lads how are ya's, sent him this message on PES Rankings;

`Alright pal, what you up ta? Doing much? You up for a game on the PS3 sometime? I found this somewhere, take a look;

"Konami and Play.com have relegated one of the top ranked players in their Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 competition from leader to loser.

The accused played and beat his upcoming opponent in a friendly two days prior to the ranked match, and then tried to post these results as the official outcome of the tie.

But Konami spotted the two day-old timestamp on the file and subsequently removed him from the GBP 50,000 cash prize tournament. Whoops.`

It later went on to say he was from this website, wonder what gobshìte did that?!"

Played the guy he was to play in the first round in a friendly before the official game; beat him and tried to use the score as proof he won the official game.

He tryed to be smart, so just incase he bottled it and lost, he used that anyway. A wee bit brain dead when he didn't realise your man was going to report it. :pac:

I am finding this very hard to believe so just to get this straight.

50K Comp
He beats yer man 4-0 in a friendly and is due to play him in the first round.
Instead of paying the match he submits the 4-0 score and yer man dosent realise that the game has been played and he is out of the 50K comp untill some time later when Robs mate drops him in it...
So Rob McClean still has only just got trough the first round and taught he would get away with it.

He deserves the year ban, and if he got away with it he could of taking 50K from someone who actually had skill and determination to get it.
