    The Telegraph's investigation into corruption in football

    Opinions?

    The Telegraph are now claiming eight current and former Premier League managers were the beneficiaries of 'bungs'. It looks like they're staggering out the news to dominate the headlines for weeks.

    You just know the next big story will be published on Saturday morning....

    as long as it's published.............and then followed up on............my guess is that it'll get kicked into the long grass.

    I don't think we should be surprised about ANY club being involved - it's par for the course and accepted in football.
    Until the obscene monies thrown (now) by BT Sport...formerly by Sky, changes...market rules apply - highest bidder wins.

    Big Sam will go away for a bit....disappear beneath the radar...resurface again.

    Some say it's an indictment of the Premier League, but even if the top 6 English teams detached to form a European Super League, the remaining clubs would still be fighting tooth and nail to join the super elite....the money scramble would continue.

    I seem to remember writing to my MP a few years back when the last 'whiff' of corruption aired itself, what happened then phuck all, the same as will happen now.

    whose interest is it in to do anything about it, no one, fans'll keep going, sky'll keep pumping the money in and we'll keep tuning in to the games.

    footballers aren't bothered about anything dodgy going on, managers aren't, agents aren't.............listen to Jason cundy on talksport he's typical of the attitude that pervades football.

    yes, the f.a. will make noises, they have to be seen to 'bother'.................ha ha phucking ha.

    glad I'm old.....
