For sure they know how to get their players in troubles. Their Romanian database is now getting fines of a few Romanian month salaries.

I think the keyword here is "William Hill is warning investors that their profits". Whether it's true or not it doesn't matter, the investors profits go down

It's also some sort of ad. Bet @ horses at WH, because there's something to win there.
