Only on 4k a week at the time - about 10% in real terms of what a player with his ability could command now - so hardly surprising he was tempted.

But many overpaid players today, I suspect, wouldn't quite get the old 'risk reward' ratio and would happily put their careers on the line for a cheap thrill or to do a favour for their hoodlum hangers on.

Particularly some from my neck of the woods <_<

I'd guess that things like this go on every week.

Didn't some Accrington players get suspended for a similar thing not long ago? Can see why some that don't earn an awful lot get tempted.
