Re: [NSWolves] Are there any honest players left?
I agree. I still blame him for assassinating Kennedy too and faking the moon landings. In fact Platini's been at the root of a lot of stuff since he landed in that UFO crash at Roswell. 2009/11/19 pcr...@contechengineering.com The issue here is match fixing. Who can say hand on heart that Mr. Platini had no influence or affect on the appalling decision making of the Ref? *From:* Steven Millward [mailto:millward@gmail.com] *Sent:* Thursday, 19 November 2009 3:46 PM *To:* nswolves@googlegroups.com *Subject:* Re: [NSWolves] Are there any honest players left? Footballers have always cheated. They just never used to have TV cameras from 14 angles to find them out. It's time for football to modernise and let the officials catch up with the fans. I doubt that players will change unless they are forced to. It's all very well trying to keep the game simple so kids in South America can play with armadilloes for goalposts but there is too much at stake to let that preclude using technology for senior games. If a game is being broadcast then the broadcaster should have to pay for a fifth official to use the cameras to assist the referee.

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.

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. _ From: Marcus Chantry [mailto:marcus.chan...@macquarie.com] Sent: Thursday, 19 November 2009 11:32 AM To: Andy Fellows; Darrell Yates; Duncan McLean; Elliot Dale; Graeme Fitzsimmons; Jeremy Thake; lee.mor...@defence.gov.au; les.ll...@veoliawater.com; Mark; Michael Lewis; nswolves@googlegroups.com; Paul Johnson; Steve Lewis; Tony Slater; Trevor Jones; Wayne Pannell; xtremefloorcoveri...@hotmail.com; Stephen Edwards Subject: [NSWolves] Are there any honest players left? where is football heading?
