I think that, instead of disqualifying an entire team for one member, they should do a re-match. Indeed, let Corpus Christi play with three against Manchester's four. I'm sure that Gail Trimble could wipe the floor with those redbrick kids single-handed, again.

The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment
