Sam Allardyce says "entrapment won" after sting


Former England football manager Sam Allardyce, who was sacked Tuesday after he was secretly recorded discussing how to get around player transfer rules,  says that "entrapment has won".

Mr Allardyce left the top job just 67 days after he was appointed, when he was recorded telling journalists for the Daily Telegraph newspaper that he could help them circumvent the rules regarding third-party player ownership.  The practice, which is banned by England's Football Association, means  an investor other than their club has a stake in a player.  

Sam Allardyce told reporters that the incident had been an error of judgement on his behalf, as he attended the meeting as a favour to an old friend.
