How Much Is Enough

With more money than ever before, football has become the sport of high rollers and global sponsors, where being number one is all that counts, in which Agents dictate and players dominate. Is the game now an industry, or still a sport, or a hybrid of both? How Much Is Enough is the latest four part series from award winning filmmaker Rod Hay. It explores the corruption and deceit that has infiltrated the game worldwide, where drug cartels, violent fan groups, and a 'win at all cost' attitude by club management is now a fact of life. Narrated by Les Murray, How Much is Enough, follows the game's origins to the present day, where players struggled to survive against a system that had little interest in the welfare of its players. However, the unexpected court victory, in 1995, of Belgian rebel Jean-Marc Bosman, changed the game dramatically in favour of the players. Whilst the rules remain the same, the money, it seems, is never enough.
