http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foot..._1/7673347.stm

I can't see it happening in English football - apart from the Grobbelaar incident. Can't see many players willing to throw a game etc.

Your faith in humanity is admirable but misplaced.

I think Koppas is basing his judgement of all British footballers on Roy of the Rovers.
