I'm sure he isn't the only one, and wont be the only one to get caught.

That is exactly what my other half has just done and said. As soon as the game etc had finished he turned the TV station over. I'm not watching that crap (or words to that effect) How many have been on now with a 'murky' past. Surely we should be having players on like Joynty etc. People who were super- heroes of our game. They have recently been scraping the barrell.

Guys that deliberately set out to hurt other players are not tough. They're sh*thouses.

I don't care. He is a cheat and has probably been cheating for the whole of his career. Who knows? Cheating does that. It creates suspicion. He's ugly as well. And he did serious damage to Longy when Longy was one of our heroes. So all in all I think Sky have outdone themselves on this occasion, making a total mockery of our sport.

Totally agree and good on your other half!

Sonny Nickle smashed a player's Jaw but I bet you still shouted for him, cant have it both ways. As I said He wont be the only one. You ask any player and they will tell you he is a tough Lad. Barrie Mcdermott for One says in his book that he is.

Carney basically asked him the same questions over and over again.

Carney: So how did you feel after you caught?
Newton: Well i let my mum down, i let my dad down, i let my wife down, i let my club down and i regret it.
Carney: How did you feel after you got the letter through your door from the drugs agency?
Newton: Well i let my mum down, i let my dad down, i let my wife down, i let my club down and i regret it.

Thats a rough idea of how the interview went, same questions over and over again, with the same response from Newton. Boring.

I wanted him to ask about when he took Long out and other incidents through-out his career but it was basically the same thing over and over again.

That's a little OTT!

You'll have to watch the mighty tony stark don't give you a warning for trying to get around swearing by using **.

After all this is a family site and young kids read it.

I hope my little lad don't ask me what Sh*thouses means!!!!

In his prelude to the interview Brian Carney said that he expected that many people would not be happy about about the interview with Terry Newton, and so it seems.

I quite enjoyed it, but I watched it as I did Longs, and that's probably the difference between you and I.
I would have liked Carney to dig into the Long incident at the JJB, but it was all about the drugs problem.

The programme was not about about making Newton a hero, it was about a man admitting the mistakes he has made. If you can't be bothered watching it then I don't know how you can comment.

His book is a very good read, you should give it a go although I suspect with your red vee specs that won't happen.

JLM23, you made some excellent points.

Me and my dad watched it as Rugby League fans, and before it came on we said this could be an interesting watch, expecting him to go over Newtons career, as well as obviously the drugs problem but they didn't. It was the same questions over and over again about the drugs, with more or less the exact same answers from Newton. It got pretty boring to be honest.

Fielden is on next week, that could also be interesting if they go into the Willie Mason incident.

From a mod too, will you be getting a warning for this swear filter dodge?

Yep, the mighty tony stark will be on his case.

Tony is a true rlfans hero.

I have requested to be notified when the warning has been issued. Won't count on it like.

No chance any warning will be given from one cod to another.

Yes it was a bit repetitive.
Get hold of a copy of Newtons book, some of the questions that you want answered are covered in there, the Long incident, Barry Mcdermott, Ricky Bibey and Millward.
