So basically 8 wannabe footballers who didn't make it wanted to be famous and rich ?
Aren't there more foreign players than British ? It was about 15 years ago or so. In the mid 90's I think (correct me if I am wrong) the Chelsea squad was only Dutch and Italians.
If you look at the demographics of the NBA it's mainly black and the non US nationalsare mainly from Europe or Africa.
This is because you need to have great height, speed, strengh and reflexes to be a basketball player. If you are under 6ft you won't go far in basketball professionaly unless you are unique.
Black athelets seem to be better than sport than white's it's down to genetics.
Look at the Greek basketball player, Giannis Giannis Antetokounmpo. Both of his parents were athlets, Nigerian and he has inherited their strong genes.
What I am saying some people have it what it takes to be pro-sportsman others do not !

Eight false accusers exposed as their attempt to get compensation fails. Now we need to see them (and their lawyers) prosecuted. This year must be the time for criminals making fake claims in order to get cash to be locked away like Carl Beech or Jemma Beale. From simply jumping on band wagons to deliberate manufacture of allegations, for decades the law has enabled these people to get away with horrendous crimes. Sometimes unintentional (when they genuine believe they have been abused, often due to media coverage) - often simply exaggeration (consensual, even active participation or adaptation of circumstances such as age) - at worst, deliberate (where there are E-Mails or text messages proving intent) - these people, like Beech, deserve at least 18 years locked up. In today's society they are guilty of crimes which, in the past, were the equivalent of bank robbery or manslaughter.
