Money talks?
Sleepin_Dragon30 January 2022
Local boy Robbie Coker, a Multi million pound player from The Jasmine Allen Estate is accused of unlawful sex with an underage girl.

This is one hell of a thought provoking episode. As a story, you don't know who to believe, do you believe the young girl with a past, or a minted, privileged footballer who thinks he can get away with anything that he wants to.

You were made to wait until the end for what actually happened. It was a scene that really does make you feel several different emotions.

The late nineties, this was perhaps the beginning of the insane football fees and wages, some would argue the game is now better than ever, others would say the money has taken over. Interesting.

David Hardwood does a great job here as Robbie Coker, he really does play the part well.

Very good, 8/10.
