I haven't been listening to SC for as long as others in this thread, does he always get so utterly obsessed with people he doesn't like? In the last year its been Mourinho, the lads have called him on it a few times, and now he seems to have gone to Neymar. I think he's covered some aspect of Neymar in every pod for the last 4 or 5 podcasts. Jaysus like.

I understand that gambling is a crippling disease, but he also did a crime. I know he's been in jail as a result, but it now feels like he's profiting on the back of it... I dunno, maybe I'm just being a bit cynical?

He admitted to the pain he caused his family and how it ruined the last few months he had with his terminally ill mother, whom he defrauded money from. I don't think I've heard an interview where somebody has more than paid the price for their crime. What more do people want? He's certainly leagues above the nordie gaa player who had a book out a while back, who still seemed like he was lying to himself. The betting companies get such an easy time from people, it's ridiculous. They definitely bear responsibility and need to be strongly regulated in my opinion. Very much akin to a pub who continue serving an intoxicated person, or knowingly let them drive pissed.

I was hoping they'd pull some strokes and get the likes of a Roy Keane or something but no... Vincent Browne!
