Have to see how it pans out but doesn't surprise me - this sort of thing is rife both there and here.

I don't want to judge yet with no real facts on Fifitas involvement - but no player is bigger than the club - none. Tbf think MC has proved that.

Seems like a FA story to me, but nice find wakeytrin. Don't forget TotalRL.com and All things Tiger though.

Shouldn't affect Big Dave and Trinity should it?

Wonder if the effect will be on her visa (assuming she is over here), which might have an effect on his willingness to stay.

It doesn't sound like its a surprise though, it's an old case and she's pleaded guilty, so not exactly breaking news.

It's more likely one of the reasons they are here rather than a reason to go home.

Yes you could well be right. She may have put it all behind her and hoping to make a fresh start over here.

However its not right what she has done, but in the grand scheme of things there are plenty of players who have done far worse and come over here for a fresh start.

Don't know about Aus, but it's certainly not rife here:

"According to figures quoted in a parliamentary report, there are major misconceptions among the general public about the scale of benefits fraud in particular. It says a 2013 survey found Britons believe almost a quarter, 24 per cent, of all benefits were claimed fraudulently, 34 times greater than the official 0.7 per cent estimate."

It's still wrong like - but the facts are always handy.
