Will the FA rule there is substance to allegations of match fixing in recent Norwich-Derby match?

Settled as No

The FA can confirm that it has closed its enquiry into reports of unusual betting patterns around the match between Norwich City and Derby County on 4 October.

Background:

The Football Association was yesterday forced to confirm it is investigating allegations of match-fixing surrounding the Championship match between Norwich City and Derby County on 4 October at Carrow Road.

Derby won 2-1 but the game was reportedly the subject of irregular betting patterns on gambling websites based in Asia. The FA was given documentation last Friday of an undisclosed nature relating to the betting patterns, and said at the weekend it would "consider any evidence which is brought to our attention".

Football's governing body did not, at that time, make public any details of the game, but it was forced to make public that information yesterday after two MPs, both Norwich fans, tabled questions in Parliament about the state of the inquiry.

Settlement details: As reported by a major mainstream news source. If no news by suspend date question will settle as 'no'. However, if it appears that a judgement is pending, suspend date may be moved forward.
