| Michael Chopra and 2 other pros have been banned from horse-racing for 10 years for corruption. Always staggers me , the sheer greed of some of these highly paid sports professionals.

| Shirley the more important part of the story is the involvement of ex City star Jamie Coppinger who got a three year ban. |

| We all imagine what millionaire status would do for us. We imagine we'd be set up for life, great, then what?
BTW, I never clicked Mike's link, just replied his question.
I somehow doubt somebody earning more in a week than some of us earn in a year is being greedy when he takes a gamble. More money than sense certainly. |

| But it is greed isn't it? Criminal greed. He wasn't just having a flutter or gambling senselessly - he was involved with others in fixing races, at the expense of joe public, for tens of thousands of pounds. Really it wasn't gambling - it was theft.

This sounds like a Director of PAFC, sort of, in an about way, maybe not transparently. |
