The media are doing their job and it obviously has changed things already, Sam Allardyce has gone! How else do you think this would have been bought to the publics attention? It doesn't need to be brought to our attention it's just filling pages of paper with unnecessary rubbish! Corruption should always be brought to attention otherwise we could easily end up like Russia where corruption runs riot without consequences.

Absolutely and this might just be the tip of the iceberg with further allegations coming out about Jimmy Floyd Hasselbank, the Leeds United owner and the Barnsley assistant manager who has been suspended by the club. After all the (justified) criticism of Sepp Blatter and FIFA it seems we need to get our own house in order.

The thing is the majority of us public don't have a say in what happens in these sort of situations so nothing's gained by reading about it.

Well yes we all have a say in such matters, fans have far more of a voice these days since the onset of the internet.

Been reported elsewhere too so presumably they had no doubt about his guilt? I suspect there is plenty more to come, whose next I wonder?

The thing is the majority of us public don't have a say in what happens in these sort of situations so nothing's gained by reading about it. Eh? Who funds football? - the fans do - through ticket sales, through expensive television subsciptions and from buying products from sponsors and also buying team kit and other stuff. The supporters fork out their hard earned cash to follow clubs, often travelling vast distances to do so, and you think they have "no say"? Watch would happen if they stopped going to matches, stopped subscribing to Sky Sports or special club channels and all the rest of it? The clubs would eventually go bust. It is simply wrong to somehow, even inadvertently, suggest that it's OK for managers and officials to commit crimes, line their pockets and that the people who ultimately pay their wages have no say?! My mind boggles. They deserve to be (bleepin') outraged and I say that as someone who doesn't give a toss about football. If you or I committed a crime we'd be found out, punished and I doubt anyone would have any sympathy. Quite right too. Why football managers caught in "a sting" deserve any sympathy is beyond me. Quite why Mr Allerdyce is seemingly moaning about entrapment I don't understand. The silly berk made all sorts of claims and commitments and offers to break / circumvent rules. He's a (stupid) crook. End of. The fact he is moaning makes him look even more stupid. There's a phrase - "if you're in a hole, stop digging". Mr Allerdyce seems to have climbed into the cab of a JCB and is merrily digging away. He should go inside his house, take a long hard look at himself and ideally keep his gob shut.
