"Is it just a reflection of our society where money rules all" sounds great coming from a worker at the Fee Factory. All we need now is an employee of that other great Fee Factory, Westfield, agreeing 100% with you.

Are we now so firmly entrenched in a game where the financial rewards are so great that every player is prepared to blatantly cheat to try and secure a result for the club or country? It makes me sick to see players deliberately diving, faking injury or even hand-balling without so much as a flinch of remorse. Where has the honesty gone? Is it just a reflection of our society where money rules all and honesty will soon be talked about as if it were a trait from a bygone era. I hate the idea that these professional footballers are earning millions of pounds funded by the supporters who seem willing to worship them no matter what deeds they undertake to make their team successful. You only have to read the views of Arsenal or Liverpool supporters who seem to think that their own teams recent cheating episodes were perfectly justifiable because they just needed a lucky break. For the latest blatant example, step forward Mr Henry for his double hand of God moment this morning to get France into the World Cup. It seems everyone associated with football wants success by any means, at any cost and it has all but ruined the credibility of the sport I love. Maybe I shouldn't be so surprised, after all they are referred to as "Professional", the oldest occupation in the world and one that has been screwing punters for money since the day they started. I need a new "sport" to follow... The information contained in this email is confidential.
