Sound of Football Podcast 111 - What's wrong with chicanery in football?

Blogpost | Download
The chaps return from a brief hiatus to discuss the ethics of cheating, diving and other shenanigans in the modern game.

But surely cheating is part of the game and there is virtue in hoodwinking the referee into gaining an advantage?

With Chris Oakley, Graham Sibley and Terry Duffelen.
