Mihir Bose: Why is it impossible to form a WADA to deal with match fixing?
On the face of it seems very easy to find a solution for match fixing. Everyone agrees it is bad and if not controlled it will ruin sport – indeed in China it has all but destroyed Chinese domestic football. But having agreed how dreadful it is we run up against the problem that it is impossible to find a universal system to police it.
How difficult this can be was well illustrated when on Wednesday of this week a conference was held to discuss sport integrity.
