I've felt the game was corrupt for a while now, but to read about how and why certain players moved to certain clubs and so on reduces any remaining childhood innocence I had left from the memories of watching these players sign for clubs, score goals, to me it was all real and truthful, being a little kid when the EPL was formed.

Yet money is king and alongside this doping is another thing added to the list of corruption.
Seeing great things happen whilst watching the "sport" and thinking "hey this is magic, this is real"

To then find out its just one big fairy tale and just as truthful as say the other stuff I watched as a kid like cartoons.

It's probably never been clean, and my naivety shines through.

I agree mate it's like I have been watching wrestling and didnt know it was fixed :(

Most of these managers will not be named for legal reasons.

Obviously must be a struggle making ends meet on £3 million a year.....

They will if they get arrested for fraud, and the Telegraph have apparently handed over some of the transcripts to the police.

A journalist on Talkshite last night said to the presenter that everyone hates whispers of the didn't deals that are going on so the time, but nothing can be proved.

I'm guessing this is going to be the same, as it's just the word of an agent, so basically just gossip. The only hope we have is that someone will leak the interview.

Just heard cundy on the radio giving it the old " everyone's at it so it's alright" the same argument lance Armstrong used and any every dirty cheater throughout history, which is no argument at all really.
