Unbelievable to realise that Anderlecht bribed the ref to win the game, but only got a one year ban.

How severe do we think the ban would be in this current day and age?

Depends on who the Club was! Us? Indefinitely. Man Utd and the like? A couple of years and a fine easily covered by tax evasion.

Never heard any Forest fans ever moaning about this.

Can only imagine just how bad it would have been had it been Sunderland!

I'm convinced that bribery of refs, managers and players is far more commonplace than any of us know.
You just have to look at some of the strange decisions by referees and managers and the weird things that some players do in games.

It is I knew an ex kit man at City and he told me a few stories about bags of money in changing rooms.
