football is fixed
One of the things that inspires my work is corruption in soccer. This is because I used to see sport, and soccer in particular as a great equalizer, a level playing field on which merit could at last reap a due reward.
I don't really believe that now, and one of the sources of knowledge which have changed my view is Jerry Bullivant's blog, uncompromisingly entitled entitled Football Is Fixed.
Here is an extract from his latest entry:
"Roy Hodgson, with one Danish League Title in 24 years and with his close links to Stellar, Base, Key Sports and Wasserman agents (who collectively represented over 60% of England's Euro 2012 squad), is not fit for purpose to be manager of the England team."
The blog itself is currently here:

Of course, it goes way beyond sport.
Needless to say, I recommend it.
