So what do we know?

1. We know that millions (perhaps billions) of pounds are staked on the results of premiers**t games.
2. We know that top flight English games have been thrown at the behest of bookies.
3. We know that very recently attempts have been made to influence the outcome of Premiers**t games.
4. We know that the least well paid men involved in football are the officials.
5. We know that a referee can influence matters at both ends of the pitch.
6. So it's not surprising that we know that in Germany referees have been used to fix matches
7. And we know that this season a Tottenham goal wasn't given even though the ball was a yard over the line
8. And we know that on Sunday Steve Dunn failed to give two clear penalties and ruled out a perfectly good goal.

But don't worry - the FA are conducting a two day enquiry - into Ashley Cole!
And the police are investigating - Bowyer and Dyer!

You couldn't make it up.
