Here's a question. Gladiators tomorrow is the latest entry to a list that also includes Morecambe and Wise, Billy Smart's Circus, The King and The Queen. What do they all have in common?

Hope the referee is corrupt because it would be more embarrassing to be this incompetent.

Can't remember a worse refereeing performance, to be honest. Would be a relief to find out he's bent, at least it'd be an explanation.

Can't complain, it's a fundamental rule of football that if a Liverpool player coughs, it's a foul.

I didn't know until today that Wikipedia's official style guidance on neutrality is to avoid "Controversies" subsections and e.g. "Public image" for people or "Reception" for works is advised.
Happy Public Image section of Wikipedia day to all who celebrate
