vCash: 500 | Big Sam: King Of Bungs So who watched the Panorama show last night on the story of bungs being paid to coaches, scouts and in particular managers? Big Sam was at the centre of everything it seemed while Harry Redknapp didn't implicate himself but didn't do himself any favours either. Today will also see the report being published were they have investigated these bungs. It should be interesting news today, just wonder how far it really goes. |

vCash: 500 | All the evidence seemed to be against Bolton and Allardyce's son. Not much on Sam or the other Premiership clubs that were mentioned. But there is generally no smoke without fire.... I was also very interested in the last manager that they nearly trapped just before Mike Newell came out with the news regarding bungs, would love to know who that was. |

vCash: 480 | Well he used to play for Liverpool and then in the mid 90's he moved to Southampton. Then about half a season later The Sun released a video of him talking to a leader of a betting syndicate saying how he was up for throwing games in return for big bucks. He was taken to court with a few other players including a goalkeeper for Wimbledon, John Fashanu and the peole running the syndicate. However Grobellar claimed he was going undercover to try and get evidence on the criminals to take to the police. After two court cases which came back undecided he was then cleared. He sued the sun for a hell of a lot of money. At this court apperance their were indescrepancies in Grobellar's story from the last court case. Due to this he was ordered to pay the expenses for The Sun's vastly expensive legal team. he could not do this so went bankrupt. |

vCash: 500 | Scandal is great? It could be if it gets rid of the leeches from the game such as agents shown in the documentary. These people are ruining OUR game, you should always remember that without the fans football is nothing. These people are essentially stealing from you. |

vCash: 500 | The only person that would be found guily due to Panorama would be the agents - including Allardyce's son. There was no concrete evidence against RedKnapp or Sam Allardye - but plenty of smoke... |
