    Fact, Fiction or plain coincidence?

    Anyone have a link for:
    Undercover: Football's dirty secrets?

    Would like to see this one - have heard a lot of people talking about it.

              Fact, Fiction or plain coincidence?

              Just watched the Undercover Football's Dirty Secrets documentary from BBC, 2006. This guy who was the programs undercover guy was named "Knut auf dem berge" and in the program seemed to train some QPR players? Anybody know who he is?

              Anyway came across this information from the same year:
              In January 2006, then Luton Town manager, Mike Newell and then-manager of Queens Park Rangers, Ian Holloway alleged that backhanders (bribes) were rife in the sport. The Football Association subsequently held talks with the two managers and established an enquiry.

              Ian Holloway was sacked (send on gardening leave) on 2. February maximum a month later. Were these things connected therefore a fact or was it fiction or just plain coincidence?

                      .......or perhaps not?

                      I know the subject might have been delicate and perhaps still is, but I am only surface scratching here ;-)

                        I guess I asked the wrong question since no one has given a real answer (in over 1100 views of this thread)

                          Yeah but 6 years of shenanigans at LR addles the memory somewhat.... we must have had 68 managers and 425 separate "dramas" iin that period - no wonder nobody has much recall of Knut auf dem berge (a name which is surely some sort of anagram or in-joke???).
