The Cancer of Corruption
Jimmy Heron
Synopsis
Frustrated by the lack of respect shown by managers, players and club directors, football referee Jim Harris's vanity succumbs to subtle bribery: he arranges the outcome of football matches in exchange for positive media coverage from the press tycoons who also own the football clubs that he bestows his favours upon. Jim's deceitful image is uncovered by a duplicitous Italian hack who tries to use his new 'headline scoop' to his own advantage, but it backfires. In this saga of corruption we see how devious men do prosper in the real world of big business.
