Speechless that feckless half wits seem to think it's ok that the man in charge of looking after our nations football team is pre-occupied with further lining his own pockets in murky waters against a clearly defined set of rules designed to stop corruption.Even more concerning is comparing the investigative journalism to uncover the corrupt and greedy ongoing gravy train in our national game to hacking a murdered girls phone!Football has become a bloated, corrupt and morally bankrupt sport where UEFA, PL managers, overpaid footballers and ruthless agents dominate. The fans are treated with utter contempt and are fleeced with 'sky' high prices in order to facilitate this.Then muggerised et al are indignant that p1ssing in their soup is morally wrong. Well sorry, but the game needs cleaning up from the top down; and not accepting the brushing under the carpet of corruption and greed that facilitates the modern football circus.
Well said

I still think newspaper should be forced to declare all the failed attempts at temptation.The way they do it now they invest in entrapment and never speak again of the failed ones while making their money back on the ones that they 'catch'That means you hear nothing of virtue but get a steady stream of 'cheating', so the knock on effect is to see only those that 'cheat'.
Really? Absolutely ludicrous statement. You've really thougt about that I can tell
Unbeknown to Allardyce, the businessmen were undercover reporters and he was being filmed as part of a 10-month Telegraph investigation that separately unearthed widespread evidence of bribery and corruption in British football.

He wasn't targetted, his "mate" walked him into the middle of it.
