What's this I keep hearing about Tennis matches being fixed?

LOL....
its been going on for years like every other sport...
it has just come to light during the Australian Open though...
im not surprised by the allegations mate...
wherever their is sport and sports betting there will always be people willing to try and bribe athletes/sports persons.
I believe 99% of sportsmen/women are honest players who genuinely want to win all the time, but theres that element in
all areas of society who will take bribes to get ahead in life, sport is no exception...
and then we can get into those who take prohibited substances to enhance their performances, but that's another subject for another day!
just remembered, it also applies to the music industry....
classic example was when Lennon recorded "whatever gets you through the night" and Elton bet him, that if it got to #1 Lennon would have to
perform on stage with him....
the song made it to #1 and Lennon lived up to the deal...
years later Elton admitted to purchasing tens of thousands of copies of the single to ensure Lennon lost the bet...
that 1974 performance was the last ever live gig Lennon performed.

newly promoted Leicester still hold onto the top of the table after the loss by Arsenal...
Chelsea's resurgence continues since they sacked manager Morino several weeks ago...
Tottenham continues their solid claims for a top our finish and automatic entry into the Euro competitions in 2017
there are no league games this weekend as round four of the FA Cup takes precedence over League games.

Very disappointed that Canadian Milos Raonic didn't make the final! I have given up on Eugenie Bouchard...I was hoping for a Serena win!

and I thought that your next comment in this thread SteveO would be about Chelsea beating Arsenal last weekend!
